Jair judges

• Jair (a Gileadite who judged Israel for twenty-two…)

• Start — Judges 10:1. The year Jair (a Gileadite who judged Israel for twenty-two…) began to judge is the year Tola (a descendant of Issachar who arose to save…) began to judge (2844) + 8 years = 2852
• End — Judges 10:2. The year Jair (a Gileadite who judged Israel for twenty-two…) ceased to judge Israel is the year he began to judge (2852) + the years he judged (23) = 2875

START:*HYPOTHESIS: The year Jair began to judge is 10 years into Tola's time as judge. [Shulman date p83] [Ussher date p55] END:[Shulman date p83]

Years are anno hominis — counted from Creation as year 1 — which is the frame the source computes in. The arithmetic behind each boundary is given above rather than assumed.
