Family records preserve the memory of the generations that came before. In tracing this specific family line, the record focuses on a man named Jether and his three sons: Jephunneh, Pispah, and Ara. There is a general agreement among commentators regarding the identity of the father; they conclude that the man listed here as Jether is actually an individual named Jethran.
