Thematic Bible: Also called temani and temanites


Thematic Bible



Therefore, I will send fire against Teman,
and it will consume the citadels of Bozrah.

therefore this is what the Lord God says: I will stretch out My hand against Edom and cut off both man and animal from it. I will make it a wasteland; they will fall by the sword from Teman to Dedan.

About Edom, this is what the Lord of Hosts says:

Is there no longer wisdom in Teman?
Has counsel perished from the prudent?
Has their wisdom rotted away?

God comes from Teman,
the Holy One from Mount Paran.Selah
His splendor covers the heavens,
and the earth is full of His praise.

Teman, your warriors will be terrified
so that everyone from the hill country of Esau
will be destroyed by slaughter.


Now when Job’s three friends—Eliphaz the Temanite, Bildad the Shuhite, and Zophar the Naamathite—heard about all this adversity that had happened to him, each of them came from his home. They met together to go and sympathize with him and comfort him.

When Jobab died, Husham from the land of the Temanites became king in his place.
