Midras Yeremia 35:10: Mekhilta DeRabbi Yishmael

וַנֵּ֖שֶׁב בָּֽאֳהָלִ֑ים וַנִּשְׁמַ֣ע וַנַּ֔עַשׂ כְּכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־צִוָּ֖נוּ יוֹנָדָ֥ב אָבִֽינוּ׃

Kami tinggal di kemah-kemah, dan kami telah mendengarkan serta melakukan segala yang diperintahkan Yonadab, bapa leluhur kami, kepada kami.

Mekhilta DeRabbi Yishmael

(And thus we find, when R. Yochanan b. Zakkai died, that his wisdom was lost with him.) They went and settled with Yaavetz, it being written of them (I Chronicles 2:55) "the dwellers of Yaavetz." Now were they dwellers of Yaavetz? Rather, they were disciples of (a man called) Yaavetz, viz. "And the families of scribes, 'dwellers' of Yaavetz — Tirathim, Shimathim, Suchathim — These were the Kenites who descended from Chamath, the father of the house of Rechav." "Tirathim" — They sounded the alarm ("mathri'im") and were answered. "Shimathim" — They heard ("shamu") the sound of shofar of Torah at Sinai. "Suchathim" — They dwelt in succoth, viz. (Jeremiah 35:10) "And we (the descendants of Rechav) live in tents, etc."
