Full reading

झेः जुस्

Pāṇini leaves out words that carry over from earlier sūtras. Expand to see the rule as a reader actually understands it.

As a rewrite rule (sketch from case endings)
झेः → जुस्

Replace jheḥ with jus. Inherited words (anuvṛtti) may add further conditions.

Commentary

In the Potential and Benedictive जुस् is the substitute of झि , the ending of the first person plural परस्मैपद ।
This debars अन्त 7.1.3; thus पचेयुः, यजेयुः ।
