The meaning of Jarah in the Bible
(From International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)
ja'-ra (ya'rah, "honey-comb" (?)): A descendant of King Saul (I Chronicles 9:42); but the Septuagint's Codices Vaticanus and Alexandrinus, have Iada = ya'dah, a name found in Septuagint of I Chronicles 8:36, where Massoretic Text has yeho'addah, Jehoaddah. Some Hebrew manuscripts have ya'dah in I Chronicles 9:42, and it should probably be accepted as the correct reading there, for ya'dah = Jehoaddah yeho'addah, linguistically; compare Jonathan and Jehonathan, etc.
