Chasidut do Rodzaju 9:30

Kedushat Levi

Genesis ‎25,13. “And these are the names of Yishmael’s children ‎according to their names and their further developments.” ‎According to Rashi the line is to be understood as the Torah ‎recording the names in the chronological order in which they ‎were born. The reason why Rashi emphasizes this is because ‎there are numerous occasions when the Torah does not list the ‎name of the children in this order, for instance: Genesis 9,18 ‎when the Torah lists the names of Noach’s sons as ‎שם, חם, ויפת‎, ‎naming ‎שם‎ first, although Yaphet was the firstborn. Similarly, in ‎Genesis 25,9 where Avraham’s burial is described, Yitzchok is ‎mentioned ahead of his older brother Yishmael as he was the ‎more righteous of the two.‎
