In the Table of Nations, Joktan's descendants settled from Mesha to Sephar. It was somewhere in Arabia, and exactly where is not known.

Who this is

Mesha, a place marking the eastern edge of the territory settled by Joktan's descendants in the Table of Nations, paired with Sephar as boundary points (Gen. 10:30). Its exact location in Arabia is uncertain, and it is not to be confused with the Benjamite clan head or the king of Moab who share the same name elsewhere in scripture.
