Jair
From CreationWiki, the encyclopedia of creation science
Jair (Hebrew: יאיר, Yāʼīr; "enlightener") (fl. 2830 AM–2852 AM)[1] was the ninth Judge of Israel. He was a Gadite and came from the land of Gilead. He had thirty sons, and each son controlled a city in Israel. (Judges 10:3-5 )
Sadly, the combined Philistine and Ammonite oppression of Israel began in the fifth year of his term. In the thirteenth year, Eli the Ithamarite became high priest of Israel.[2]
