The Judgeship of Tola and Jair.

Judges 10:1-5

1 And after Abimelech there arose to defenda Israel Tola the son of Puah, the son of Dodo, a man of Issachar; and he dwelt in Shamir in mount Ephraim.

2 And he judged Israel twenty and three years, and died, and was buried in Shamir.

3 And after him arose Jair, a Gileadite, and judged Israel twenty and two years.

4 And he had thirty sons that rode on thirty ass colts, and they had thirty cities, which are called Havothjairb unto this day, which are in the land of Gilead.

5 And Jair died, and was buried in Camon.
