 This seems to be the last post dedicated only to the names of the children of Esau (Edom).    I chose a wilderness hot spring for this post because there is a person named Anah, who found the hot springs in the wilderness near where he pastured his father's donkeys.  It is just a small part of the story and  a welcome bit of normal dialogue in a sea of names. 

This passage also breaks from the description of the *children* of the sons, etc.  to the *chiefs* of the Horites (Horee in Hebrew) who lived in the land of Seir.   I am hoping for more interesting story lines as we get past t his one, still it is all good for practice.
