23 Dedan, and Tema , and Buz , and all that are in the utmost corners ,
Tema descended from Ishmael, Gen. 25.15. his posterity inhabited in Arabia, Isa. 21.14. where they are joined with those of Dedan.
Buz was one of the posterity of Na[illegible: 1 letter]or, Gen. 22.21. These were people mixed with the Saracens or Arabians.
That dwell in the corners or furthest parts of the World. Some interpret it of the fashion of their cutting their beards, as the Saracens did, v. Lev. 19.27. where God forbad his people that fashion.
We read of a Dedan the issue of Cham, Gen. 10.7. The other the posterity of Abraham by Iokshan, Gen. 25.3. It seemeth to be a City of Idumaea, chap. 49.8.
