Who this is
Mibzar, meaning “fortress,” was listed among the chiefs, or “dukes,” of Edom descended from Esau (Genesis 36:42; 1 Chronicles 1:53). Like several other Edomite chief names in this list, it probably doubles as the name of a clan territory or stronghold rather than referring only to an individual.
