  Bashemath
  sweet-smelling. (1.) The daughter of Ishmael, the last of Esau's
  three wives (Gen. 36:3, 4, 13), from whose son Reuel four tribes
  of the Edomites sprung. She is also called Mahalath (Gen. 28:9).
  It is noticeable that Esau's three wives receive different names
  in the genealogical table of the Edomites (Gen. 36) from those
  given to them in the history (Gen. 26:34; 28:9).
  
    (2.) A daughter of Solomon, and wife of Ahimaaz, one of his
  officers (1 Kings 4:15).
