Jetur
| Morphological Notes | Proper noun, masculine singular (personal and tribal name). |
| Rendering Rationale | The term functions solely as a proper masculine singular name in Biblical Hebrew, designating an Ishmaelite ancestor and his associated tribe. Although morphologically derived from the root טור, it carries no active verbal or adjectival sense in usage and is therefore preserved as a proper name. |
