Genubath גְּנֻבַת

Genubath is mentioned in 1Ki.11.20 as the son of Hadad, an Edomite prince who fled to Egypt during King David's reign. Hadad found favor with Pharaoh, who gave him a house, land, and food, and also arranged for him to marry the sister of Queen Tahpenes (1Ki.11.19). Genubath was born to Hadad and his Egyptian wife, and he was raised in Pharaoh's palace alongside the Pharaoh's own children (1Ki.11.20). This indicates that Hadad and his family were well-respected and had a high status in the Egyptian court. The mention of Genubath's upbringing in the palace suggests that he may have had a significant role or influence later in life, although no further details are provided about his life or accomplishments.
