You can use the sl.zip() method to join the arrays together by index. The result will be an array of 3-element arrays, so then a map() will be needed to convert the triples into objects.

       $groceryStore.fruits.bananaArray)
  .map(x => { appleArray: x[0], orangeArray: x[1], bananaArray: x[2] })

Yep! That worked wonderfully. Thank you!

Actual code:

sl.zip((jsonPath($, “$translations[].locale")), (jsonPath($, "$translations[].body”)), (jsonPath($, “$translations[*].title”))).map(x => {locale: x[0], body: x[1], title: x[2] })
