(Heb. Yithra’, , excellence; Sept. Vulg. Jetra), an Israelite (probably an error of transcription [see Thenius, Comment. ad loc.]; a Jezreelite, according to the Sept. and Vulg.; but [more correctly] an Ishmaelite, according to 1Ch 2:17), and father of Amasa (David’s general) by Abigail, David’s sister (1 Kings 2, 5); elsewhere called JETHER (2Sa 17:25). B.C. ante 1023.<\/p>\n
Father of Amasa by Abigail, David’s sister (2Sa 17:25; 1Ch 2:17). (See AMASA; ABIGAIL.) “An Ishmaelite” is the true reading; for why state that he was an “Israelite”? That he was an Ishmaelite would be something exceptional, and fitly mentioned in the genealogy. Jether or Ithra had “gone in to,” i.e. seduced, Abigail, daughter of Nahash and sister of Zeruiah, Joab’s mother Absalom, probably during the sojourn of David’s family with the king of Moab (1Sa 22:3-4). (See ABSALOM.)<\/p>\n
ITHRA.The father of Amasa, and husband of Abigail, Davids sister. He is described as an Israelite in 2Sa 17:25, but the better reading is Jether the Ishmaelite (1Ch 2:17).<\/p>\n
ithra (, yithra), abundance): The father of Amasa, commanding general in the rebel army of Absalom. It seems that his mother was Abigail, a sister or half-sister of King David (1Ch 2:17). She is called the sister of Zeruiah, Joab’s mother (2Sa 17:25). In this same passage Ithra is called an Israelite, but in 1Ch 2:17; 1Ki 2:5, 1Ki 2:32, we read: Jether the Ishmaelite.<\/p>\n
