And Abigail bare Amasa: and the father of Amasa was Jether the Ishmeelite.

Ithra is called Jether in some Greek and Old Latin manuscripts as well as in 1 Kings 2:5,1 Kings 2:32; 1 Chronicles 2:17.
One early Greek manuscript and 1 Chronicles 2:17 identify Ithra as an Ishmaelite rather than an Israelite, as the standard Hebrew text of 2 Samuel 17:25 reads.
Many Bible students think Ishmaelite was the original reading in 2 Samuel, since it would be unusual and unnecessary to identify an Israelite (REB, TEV, NRSV).
