As a person, Dumah is listed as one of the sons of Ishmael, making him a tribal ancestor of the Ishmaelites (Genesis 25:14; 1 Chronicles 1:30). As a place, Dumah is mentioned in the context of a prophecy in Isaiah 21:11, where it is often interpreted as a region or city associated with Edom.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>Dumah, as a descendant of Ishmael, is part of the broader narrative of the Ishmaelites, who were traditionally seen as nomadic tribes in the Arabian Peninsula. The mention of Dumah in Isaiah 21:11 is often linked to the region of Edom, which was located to the southeast of Israel and was known for its rocky terrain and strategic trade routes. The name Dumah, meaning "silence," may reflect the desolate or quiet nature of the region.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from the same as <a href="/hebrew/1745.htm">dumah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>a son of Ishmael, also a city in Judah and a name of Edom<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Dumah (3).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Dumah <p>The same as <a href="/hebrew/1745.htm">duwmah</a>;
