Genesis 46:13 gives the third name as Iob, and Numbers 26:23–24 and 1 Chronicles 7:1 as Jashub. Genesis 46:13 and Numbers 26:23 give the second name as Puvah (the Korean 부와), and 1 Chronicles 7:1 as Puah (the Korean 부아). Tola and Shimron stand in all three lists. This collection records Iob and Jashub apart, records the Puah of 1 Chronicles 7:1 as a name of its list without joining it to Puvah, and does not decide which names are the same men.
