Commentary
Gill's Exposition
These are the sons of Ishmael,.... The twelve before mentioned, Gen 25:13 , these are their names, by their towns and by their castles; their towns and their castles being
called after their names, some of which we are able to trace at this distance, as the above notes show: twelve princes according to their nations; these were princes, or heads of tribes, and there were twelve of them, and continued so, see Gen 17:20 ; where is the prophecy, and here an accomplishment of it.
