Cultural and Historical Background: Hazarmaveth is mentioned in the genealogies of Genesis and 1 Chronicles as a descendant of Shem, through Joktan. The name is also associated with an ancient region in southern Arabia, which is believed to be the area known today as Hadramaut in Yemen. This region was historically significant for its trade routes and incense production, contributing to the wealth and cultural exchange in the ancient Near East.
