Exegesis
Melekh-habashan {מֶֽלֶךְ־הַבָּשָׁ֗ן | meleḵ·hab-bāšān} forms a construct chain denoting possession, and the relative clause introduced by asher {אֲשֶׁ֥ר | ’ă-šer} ‘which’ with babashan {בַּבָּשָׁ֖ן | bab-bāšān} ‘in Bashan’ qualifies the settlements as those of Jair.
In context — Joshua 13:30
And their border extended from Mahanaim through all Bashan, the entire kingdom of Og, king of Bashan, and all the towns of Jair in Bashan, numbering sixty cities .
