This term appears in the New Testament, specifically in Luke 3:1, where it describes the tetrarchy of Philip during the time of John the Baptist: "In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar... Philip tetrarch of Iturea and Traconitis..." Usage: The term Jetur is used in the context of genealogies and territorial descriptions in the Hebrew Bible. It appears in the following passages: Context: Jetur is identified as one of the twelve sons of Ishmael, the son of Abraham and Hagar, as recorded in Genesis 25:15 and 1 Chronicles 1:31. The descendants of Jetur are believed to have settled in the region east of the Jordan River, which later became known as Iturea. This area is mentioned in the context of the tribes that the Reubenites, Gadites, and the half-tribe of Manasseh fought against, as noted in 1 Chronicles 5:19. The Itureans, likely named after Jetur, were known as a nomadic tribe and are historically recognized for their archery skills. The region of Iturea is also mentioned in the New Testament, indicating its continued significance during the time of Jesus.
