The sons of Midian The mention of Midian here is significant as it connects to the Midianites, a group that plays a notable role in later biblical narratives. Midian was one of the sons of Abraham through Keturah, and his descendants became a distinct people. The Midianites are often seen in the Bible as both allies and adversaries of Israel. The name "Midian" itself is derived from the Hebrew root "madad," meaning "to measure" or "to judge," which may reflect the role of the Midianites in the biblical narrative as a people who were often in conflict with Israel, serving as a measure of Israel's faithfulness to God.
