In 1 Chronicles 7:38, the Jitsrites are listed among the descendants of Jether, who was a notable figure within the tribe. The passage reads: "The sons of Jether: Jephunneh, Pispah, and Ara." This indicates that the Jitsrites were part of the broader family lineage of Jether, contributing to the tribal structure and heritage of Asher.

The mention of the Jitsrites highlights the diversity and complexity of the tribal affiliations within Israel.
