MASREKAH

mas'-re-ka, mas-re'-ka (masreqah; Masekka): A place mentioned in the list of ancient rulers of Edom (Gen 36:31), "before there reigned any king over the children of Israel." Masrekah was the royal city of Samlah, son of Hadad (Gen 36:36; 1 Ch 1:47). The name may mean "place of choice vines," but there is nothing to show in what locality it must be sought.
