    The form is tagged as a proper noun in both occurrences. In Genesis 36:40 the APB renders a list of the chiefs of Esau, including “chief Jetheth”; in 1 Chronicles 1:51 it similarly renders the chiefs of Edom after Hadad died, including “chief Jetheth.”

In the Anselm Project Bible: Across both verses, the APB presents the name as “Jetheth” in a list introduced by “chief.” It does not independently establish more than the name's placement in these lists.
