As 6:32 and 7:1 explain, the word Jerubbaal is another name for the man also known as Gideon. The author may be using this name here to recall how Gideon tore down the altar to Baal that his father Joash had set up. He may be recalling that action to contrast it with Gideon setting up the golden ephod. So it would be in keeping with the author’s purposes to use the name Jerubbaal here in your translation. But if it would be helpful to your readers, you could explain in the text that this is another name for Gideon. Alternate translation: “And Jerubbaal the son of Joash, that is, Gideon”
