This could symbolize the consuming nature of leadership or the challenges faced by rulers. "Beor" is a name that appears elsewhere in the Bible, notably as the father of Balaam, suggesting a lineage of significance. The mention of Bela as the son of Beor indicates a continuation of a family line that held influence, possibly hinting at a hereditary monarchy in Edom. This reflects the historical context of ancient Near Eastern societies where leadership often passed through familial lines. reigned in Edom His city was named Dinhabah Parallel Commentaries ...
