Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries: There is no direct Greek equivalent for Lotan in the Strong's Greek Dictionary, as Lotan is a specific Hebrew name without a direct Greek counterpart. Usage: Lotan is a personal name in the Hebrew Bible. It is used to identify a specific individual, Lotan, who is a descendant of Seir the Horite. Lotan is listed as one of the chiefs of the Horites, a group of people who lived in the region of Seir before the Edomites. Cultural and Historical Background: The Horites were a group of people mentioned in the Bible as inhabitants of the land of Seir, which is located in the region south of the Dead Sea. They were eventually displaced by the descendants of Esau, also known as the Edomites. The mention of Lotan and other Horite chiefs provides insight into the genealogical and territorial dynamics of the ancient Near East, particularly in relation to the Edomites and their ancestral lands.
