    All supplied forms are tagged Noun · Proper. In 1 Chronicles 7:1, the forms occur in the list of Issachar’s sons, where the APB renders the names “Tola, Puah, Jashub, Jashub, and Shimron.” In Numbers 26:24, the name stands with the clan called “the Jashubites,” while Ezra 10:29 places it among names from the sons of Bani.

In the Anselm Project Bible: The APB presents the term as “Jashub” in each cited verse: within lists of names in 1 Chronicles 7:1 and Ezra 10:29, and alongside “the clan of the Jashubites” in Numbers 26:24. It does not by itself distinguish the name’s contribution from the surrounding list or clan wording.
