QUEST. III. Why Mahalath is said to be the sister of Nebaioth.
Vers. 9. SIster of Nebaioth. 1. Nebaioth is added, not for that he was her brother also by the mother, and the rest were not. 2. Nor yet onely because he was the eldest sonne, and most renowned amongst his brethren. 3. But he is named as the chiefe of Ismaels house, who was now dead, and the go∣vernment committed to his eldest sonne Nebaioth: for Iacob was now 77. yeares old when he went into Mesopotamia, in the 63. yeare of whose age Ismael died, who was fourteene yeares elder than Isaack, and lived 137. yeares: and Isaack was 60. yeares elder than Iacob: so that Ismaels 137. yeare, doth fall into Iacobs 63. yeare: see more of this, Quest. 20. in chap. 25.
