10:1-5 Each of the five minor judges (see also 12:8-15) judged Israel for a specific number of years; in this period of decline after Gideon, the formula “there was peace in the land” (3:11, 30; 5:31; 8:28) never recurs. The details given for these enigmatic figures include their places of origin and burial, and perhaps a brief genealogy or something notable about their families. Four of the five names appear in other genealogical records: Tola and Puah as clans of Issachar (Gen 46:13; Num 26:23), Elon as a descendant of Zebulun (Gen 46:14; Num 26:26), and Jair at various points (see Num 32:41; Deut 3:14; Josh 13:30; 1 Kgs 4:13). The lack of specific military exploits and the common reference to “judging” suggests that they had some kind of administrative or judicial function.
Note 1 topic: translate-symaction
רֹֽכְבִים֙ עַל־שְׁלֹשִׁ֣ים עֲיָרִ֔ים
rode on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in thirty donkeys
In this culture at this time, Jair’s sons riding on these donkeys was a symbolic action that indicated that they were young men of wealth and status. This, in turn, indicated that Jair himself was wealthy and influential. Alternate translation: “each of whom he could afford to give a donkey to ride”
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
לָהֶ֞ם יִקְרְא֣וּ
to/for=them called
Here, they is an indefinite pronoun that does not have a specific referent in the immediate context. If it would be helpful in your language, you could translate this with a different expression that does not use an indefinite pronoun. Alternate translation: “they are called”
Note 3 topic: translate-names
חַוֺּ֣ת יָאִ֗יר
villages Yāʼīr/(Jair)'s
Havvoth Jair is the name of a group of cities.
Note 4 topic: translate-transliterate
חַוֺּ֣ת יָאִ֗יר
villages Yāʼīr/(Jair)'s
In your translation, you could spell this name the way it sounds in your language, the way the ULT does. However, this name means the Cities of Jair, and If it would be helpful to your readers, you could say that in your translation instead. Alternate translation: “the Cities of Jair”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
עַ֚ד הַיּ֣וֹם הַזֶּ֔ה
until the=day the=this
By this day, the author means the time when he was writing. He and his audience knew when that was, but we are not entirely sure of it today. It may be helpful to use a general expression in your translation. Alternate translation: “at this time”
