    Edom

    1 place and 1 person in the registry answer to the name Edom. One of them is named otherwise and called Edom in the text.

    Edom is named far more often than the others together, so a search for the bare name lands there rather than here.

    01 — Candidates

    Which Edom

    Ordered by how often the text names each one, the entities called Edom before those that answer to it. Where two read the same, the registry says no more than that — the first reference is what separates them.
