Yaarey Oregim
Jaare
A personal name, 'Jaare-Oregim,' found in certain textual traditions of 2 Samuel 21:19, understood as a composite phrase meaning 'forests of weavers.' The form appears as a result of either a transcriptional or scribal conflation of two terms and is not a standard Israelite personal name. The phrase itself is made up of 'ya'arim' (woods/forests) and 'oregim' (weavers), but in this context, it does not function as a common noun phrase but as a proper name by tradition.
