Can you please clarify something? As I am studying Genesis 26 and Genesis 36, I see Basemath and Judith listed as Esau's wives. Then, I also see Adah (which you say is Basemath),Oholibamah(you say is Judith), and Basemath each bearing different children. This is very confusing. I understand that people can have more than one name, but Adah and Basemath are different people, right?
