Commentaries:
Adam Clarke
Haran - In Mesopotamia; well known in Scripture.
Canneh - Or Chalane, see Genesis 10:10. It is supposed to be a cape or port of Arabia Felix, on the Indian Sea.
Eden - Equally famous: supposed to have been situated near the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates.
Sheba - Different from that in Genesis 10:22. This was probably near the country of the Edomites.
Asshur - Perhaps the Assyrians.
Chilmad - Possibly Cholmadora, on the Euphrates. Ptol. lib. v.. cap. 15. For several of these places, and the persons from whom they derived their names, see Genesis 10 (note), and the notes there; and see Calmet.
