1. Jeush / Ye'ush (proper name) — The proper name Jeush/Ye'ush (יְעוּשׁ, also ketiv יְעִישׁ), probably meaning 'he comes to help.' Borne by multiple individuals: (1) a son of Esau by Oholibamah (Gen 36:5, 14, 18; 1 Chr 1:35), (2) a Benjamite son of Bilhan (1 Chr 7:10), (3) a Levite son of Shimei (1 Chr 23:10-11), (4) a son of king Rehoboam (2 Chr 11:19). All multilingual glosses uniformly render this as a single proper name: Arabic يعوش, German Jeusch, Hindi येउश, Korean 예우시, Spanish Yeush. The four auto-clusters reflect only prefixed conjunctions (ו and) and one ketiv variant spelling, not distinct senses. 10×
