The Greek people in their time of idolatry worshipped as chief God “Jupiter” a possible corruption of the name of their ancestor, Japheth

VERY incorrect. The Greeks worshipped Zeus. Jupiter was a Latin god

The etymology of the term Zeus is the same as the Sanskrit Dyaus Pitr (Heaven Father) or Deus in Latin
