Onam

Onam was a descendant of Seir the Horite, a group that inhabited the land of Edom before Esau's descendants (Genesis 36:23;1 Chronicles 1:40). He is mentioned in the genealogies of the Horites, which are recorded in the context of Esau's family history. The Horites were a people group that lived in the region of Seir, which later became known as Edom. Onam's mention in these genealogies suggests that he was a significant figure among the Horites.
