AL-MODAD was, according to Genesis 10:26 ( 1 Chronicles 1:20 ), the oldest son of Joktan (wh. see). Joktan is the eponym of the tribes and peoples of eastern and southern Arabia. From the position of Al-modad in the list of ‘sons,’ it would appear that he is to be located in the south of the peninsula. As yet the name can neither be explained nor identified with any known region.
