Commentaire sur Chroniques 1 1:23
וְאֶת־אוֹפִ֥יר וְאֶת־חֲוִילָ֖ה וְאֶת־יוֹבָ֑ב כָּל־אֵ֖לֶּה בְּנֵ֥י יָקְטָֽן׃ (ס)
Ophir, Havila et Yobab. Tous ceux-là furent enfants de Yoktân.
Rashi on I Chronicles
all these were the sons of Joktan for he belittled his affairs. Eber was a great prophet (for he named his son for a future event), but the names of the others were not meant to be expounded upon, for they were not inspired by prophetic word.
