Genesis 46:13

וּ בְנֵי יִשָׂשכָר תֹּולָע וּ פֻוָּה וְ יֹוב וְ שִׁמְרֹון

Strong’s #3102, Yob יוֹב. The spelling is different from Iyyob אִיּוֹב (Book of Job) in that it is missing the aleph א. See #347. Iyyob means enemy, hated. comes from ayab (#340) which means to be hated/hostile to. Yob has been speculated to be an erroneous transcription for Yobab, he shall return (#3437).
