Ibn Ezra on Genesis 26:34/אבן עזרא על בראשית כ״ו:ל״ד
איהודית. שם ולא הוליד ממנה:
1JUDITH. Judith is a proper name.19 (Judith) can be taken to be an adjective, viz., Yehudi, hence I.E.’s comment (Krinsky). She did not bear Esau any children.20
בובשמת. היא עדה ויש לה שני שמות, ובמקרא נמצאין למאות כן:
2BASEMATH. Basemath is to be identified with Adah.21. However, in Gen. 36:2 we read, Adah, the daughter of Elon, the Hittite. I.E. explains the discrepancy by saying that she had two names. She had two names. There are hundreds of similar instances in Scripture.22
