Job 6:19
6:19 a The city of Tema in the northern Arabian desert was at the junction of roads from Damascus to Mecca and from the Persian Gulf to Aqaba (Isa 21:14 b; Jer 25:23 c). It might have been named after one of Ishmael’s descendants (Gen 25:15 d). It was not the same as Teman, Eliphaz’s home in Edom.• Sheba, located in southwest Arabia, was a market city for precious commodities (Ps 72:10 e, 15 f; Isa 60:6 g; Jer 6:20 h; Ezek 27:22-23 i; 38:13 j).
