She is one of Esau's wives and is noted for her Edomite heritage. The Edomites were descendants of Esau and lived in the region south of the Dead Sea. Marriages between the descendants of Esau and the local Canaanite tribes were common, and Oholibamah's name reflects the cultural integration and religious practices of the time, as "high places" were often associated with worship and religious rites.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/168.htm">ohel</a> and <a href="/hebrew/1116.htm">bamah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>"tent of the high place," wife of Esau, also an Edomite leader<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Oholibamah (8).<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">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">אָהֳלִיבָמָה</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name</b></font> Oholibama (<em>tent of the high place</em>) <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>1. feminine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>wife of Esau</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/36-2.htm">Genesis 36:2</a>,5,14,18,25. <p><font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>2. masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>an Edomite chief</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/genesis/36-41.htm">Genesis 36:41</a>;
