Part of Speech: Proper Noun
Explanation: This is a proper noun, referring to Jerubbaal, an alternative name for Gideon, a judge of Israel. The apostrophe at the end (keraia) indicates that the word is being used as a numeral, representing 10 + 5 + 100 + 2 + 1 + 1 + 30 + 1 = 150, but in this context, it is clearly a proper noun. The keraia is often used in ancient manuscripts to mark proper nouns or abbreviations, not just numbers.
