Jether je'-ther (yether, "abundance"):
(1) Exodus 4:18 the Revised Version margin, King James Version, margin.
See JETHRO.
(2) Gideon's eldest son (Judges 8:20), who was called upon by his father to slay Zebah and Zalmunnah, but "feared, because he was yet a youth." The narrative there (Judges 8:4) should be connected with that of Judges 6:34, where Gideon is followed by his clan, and not with that of Jude 7:1, where he has 300 picked men. The captives would be taken to Orpah, Gideon's home, and slain there.
(3) Father of Amasa (1 Kings 2:5, 1 Kings 2:32); he was an Ishmaelite according to 1 Chronicles 2:17 = "Ithra, the Israelite" of 2 Samuel 17:25, where "the Ishmaelite" should be read for "the Israelite."
(4) A Jerahmeelite (1 Chronicles 2:32 twice).
(5) A Judahite (1 Chronicles 4:17).
(6) A man of Asher (1 Chronicles 7:38) = "Ithran" of 1 Chronicles 7:37.
