This will be a discussion on the daughters in law of Noah and who they were and most information on them comes from the Ge’ez Ethiopic text of Book of Jubilees.If you own that please have it handy.
Lets start with the wife of Yefet (Japheth) who according to Genesis is the oldest (Gen 10:21) and the name Yefet or Japheth means beautiful one from the Hebrew word Yofi meaning beauty.
Japheth’s wife was “Adataneses” and the name may have meant gift likely in the Ge’ez language.
And Japheth saw it, and became envious of his brother, and he too built for himself a city, and he called its name after the name of his wife ’Adâtanêsês.
Like all pre flood people she was said to have lived a very long time and she was a prophetess and a person of respect.
And behold these three cities are near Mount Lûbâr; Sêdêqêtêlĕbâb fronting the mountain on its east; and Na’êlâtamâ’ûk on the south; ’Adatanêsês towards the west.
He likewise built a city which he named for his wife, Adataneses. Shem was the only one of the sons of Noah who did not abandon him.
Sedeketelbab the wife of Shem (Shem meaning ,person of good reputation or literally name but good reputation in the broader sense)
Sedeketelebab means “righteous of heart” ,here are some Paleo Hebrew accounts of her ,these are extra Biblical and may not all be true but food for thought.
“The Book of 𐤉𐤅𐤁𐤋 (Yauabal) says his original 𐤀𐤔𐤄 (ashah)’s name was Sedeqetelebab; it is claimed that the name means “Righteousness of Heart”. However, there are claims that his 𐤀𐤔𐤄 (ashah)’s name was Ar’yel. She gave birth to his children named 𐤏𐤉𐤋𐤌 (Āyalam), 𐤀𐤔𐤇𐤅𐤓 (Ashakhauar), 𐤀𐤓𐤐𐤊𐤔𐤃 (Araphakashad), 𐤋𐤅𐤃 (Lauad), and 𐤀𐤓𐤌 (Aram).
The attribution of his 𐤀𐤔𐤄 (ashah)’s name Sedeqetelebab is based on the text stating “And Shem dwelt with his father Noah, and he built a city close to his father on the mountain, and he too called its name after the name of his wife Sedeqetelebab. And behold these three cities are near Mount Lubar; Sedeqetelebab fronting the mountain on its east; and Na’eltama’uk on the south; ‘Adatan’eses towards the west.” Since the Book of 𐤉𐤅𐤁𐤋 (Yauabal) says he named the territory after her then we have to assume her legitimate name is Sedeqetelebab.
Unlike the name Sedeqetelebab, 𐤀𐤓𐤉𐤀𐤋 (Arayaal) has an Ābarayat meaning, which is “Lioness of the Most High”. Since everyone spoke the same language prior to the Tower of Babel the name of his 𐤀𐤔𐤄 (ashah) should have some type of meaning in the language.
It is said that Ar’yel was raised in a remote forest village among people who worshipped false “gods”. She came to believe in 𐤉𐤄𐤅𐤄 (Yahauah) / 𐤉𐤄𐤉𐤄 (Yahayah) after hearing 𐤍𐤅𐤇 (Nauakh) speak to her people. Longing to know more about the Creator, she soon joined 𐤍𐤅𐤇 (Nauakh)’s family in building the ark” (BTW I’m not super good with Phoenician/Paleo Hebrew script)
“And Shem dwelt with his father Noah, and he built a city close to his father on the mountain, and he too called its name after the name of his wife Sêdêqêtêlĕbâb.”
She also was a prophetess and lived a long time after the flood.
Na’elatama’uk ,the wife of Cham/Ham the youngest son of Noah. I came up with nothing in research other than what is already said in Jubilees.Perhaps the difficult spelling did not help and no evidence from any source on the names meaning.
If you have information on Na’elatama’uk please leave it in the comments,thank you and God Bless!
