Thayer's Greek Lexicon
᾿Ιδουμαία, -as, ἡ, Jdumea, the name of a region between southern Palestine and Arabia Petrea, inhabited by Esau or Edom (Gen. xxxvi. 30) and his posterity (the Edomites), (Josh. xv. 1, 21; xi. 17; xii. 7). The Edomites were first subjugated by David; but after his death they disputed Solomon’s authority and in the reign of Joram recovered their liberty, which they maintained, transmitting from generation to generation their hatred of Israel, until they were conquered again by Hyreanus and subjected to the government of the Jews: Mk. iii. 8. [For details of boundary and history, see Bertheau in Schenkel and Porter in B. D.s. v. Edom; also the latter in Kitto’s Cycl. s. ν. Idumza.]
