  Jair - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jair (Hebrew יאיר Ya'ir) was a man from Gilead (see also Manasseh), east of the River Jordan, who judged Israel for twenty-two years after the death of Tola.
Jair was the son of Segub, the son of Hezron the Jew through the daughter of Makir (1 Chronicles 2).
According to Judges 10:3-5, Jair had thirty sons, who rode thirty ass colts, and thirty 'cities' in Gilead which came to be known as Havoth-Jair.

 Commentary on the Whole Bible Volume II (Joshua to Esther)
Jair bore the name of a very famous man of the same tribe who in Moses's time was very active in reducing this country, Num.
That which is chiefly remarkable concerning this Jair is the increase and honour of his family: He had thirty sons, v.
Others make them to commence at the death of Jair, which seems the more probable because that part of Israel which was most infested by the Ammonites was Gilead, Jair's own country, which we cannot suppose to have suffered so much while he was living, but that part at least would be reformed and protected.

 Jair
The picture is clearly of Christ in resurrection glory, Jair’s thirty sons (the perpetuation of his own life) being the symbolic figure of the eternal perpetuation of the Lord’s life.
As they, the second generation of Jair, rode on second generation ass colts, so are we who are the “second generation” of Christ, to manifest that fact in our lives.
Jair’s death, like that of Tola, continues to warn of the brevity and uncertainty of life, and of the need to live that life for Christ.

 Havvoth-jair (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia) :: Bible Tools
hav-oth-ja'-ir (chawwoth ya'ir "the encampments" or "tent villages of Jair"; the King James Version Havoth-Jair, ha-voth-ja'ir): The word chawwoth occurs only in this combination (Numbers 32:41; Deuteronomy 3:14; Judges 10:4), and is a legacy from the nomadic stage of Hebrew life.
Jair had thirty sons who possessed thirty "cities," and these are identified with Havvoth-jair in Judges 10:3 ff.
In Deuteronomy 3:13 f., it is identified with Bashan and Argob; but in 1 Kings 4:13, "the towns of Jair" are said to be in Gilead; while to him also "pertained the region of Argob, which is in Bashan, threescore great cities with walls and brazen bars." There is evident confusion here.

His reign lasted twenty-three years, and was followed by that of Jair ("Enlightener"), who judged twenty-two years.
The family notice of the latter indicates great influence, each of his thirty sons appearing as a "chief" (riding on "ass-colts"), and their property extending over thirty out of the sixty cities (1 Kings 4:13; 2 Chronicles 2:23) which formed the ancient Havoth-Jair, or circuits of Jairs** (Numbers 32:41; Deuteronomy 3:14).
The names of Tola and Puah, or Phuvah (Genesis 46:13; Numbers 26:23), as well as that of Jair, were tribal names.

 Chapter & Verse
When you continually seek God and when you bare His fruits, not your own “seasonal fruits” and not your own “shape-shifting fruits”.
Jair means “my light, one who diffuses light.” Jair ruled over Israel for thirty years, and he had thirty sons who rode thirty donkeys and they controlled thirty towns in Gilead.
Today the towns are still called Havoth-Jair, which means “the villages that enlighten.” Jair’s name means “my light or one who diffuses the light”; but was it God’s light and God’s anointed, or was it the light of a self-appointed man? Again, God mentions very little about Jair, who gets one sentence more than Tola.
