*1 BASMATH means PERFUME. This suggests that she was involved in perfuming. Perhaps - she always perfumed herself - she offered perfume sacrifices to idolatry (Rashi) *2 These phrases are the same showing that the two names refer to the same person *4 MACHLATH means ATONEMENT. But Gn26-33 states ------------------------------------------------ Esauv saw that his father did not like his other wives so he married an Arab wife ------------------------------------------------ Perhaps then MACHLATH means that Esauv supplicated for ATONEMENT for his former wives. (Rashi actually suggests that he actually received atonement) *3 This identity of Ahalivamah and Yehudith is less clear than the identity of the other two wives. Perhaps we can justify the assertion by appeal to analogy. The word YEHUDITH means JEWISH. Perhaps then Esauv called his wife JEWISH to fool his father into thinking that she was interested in his religion. | |||||

*10 The alignment of the 3 lists together gives more of a punch to the three Rashis since we see parallel issues in them. |
