Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [4]

DEUEL . Father of Eliasaph, prince of Gad ( Numbers 1:14; Numbers 7:42; Numbers 7:47; Numbers 10:20 ) = Reuel , Numbers 2:14 (perhaps the original name).

Morrish Bible Dictionary [5]

Father of Eliasaph, 'prince' of Gad. Numbers 1:14; Numbers 7:42,47; Numbers 10:20 . In Numbers 2:14 he is called REUEL.This is plainly an instance where the letter ד (D) has been mistaken for the letter ר(R).

Smith's Bible Dictionary [6]

De'uel or De-u'el. (invocation of God). Father of Eliasaph, the "captain" of the tribe of Gad, at the time of the numbering of the people at Sinai. Numbers 1:14; Numbers 7:42; Numbers 7:47; Numbers 10:20. (B.C. 1491). The same man is mentioned again in Numbers 2:14 but here the name appears as Ruel.

International Standard Bible Encyclopedia [7]

dū´el , dē̇ -ū´el דּעוּאל , de‛ū'ēl , "knowledge of God"): A G adite, the father of Eliasaph, the representative of the tribe of Gad in the census-taking ( Numbers 1:14 ), in making the offering of the tribe at the dedication of the altar ( Numbers 7:42 , Numbers 7:47 ), and as leader of the host of the tribe of the children of Gad in the wilderness ( Numbers 10:20 ). Called Reuel in Numbers 2:14 , daleth ( ד , d ) being confused with resh ( ר , r ).

Cyclopedia of Biblical, Theological and Ecclesiastical Literature [8]

(Heb. Deuel,; דְּעוּאֵל, according to Gesenius, invocation of God; according to Furst, acquainted with God; Sept. ῾Ραγουήλ; Vulg. Dehuel), father of Eliasaph, the "captain" ( נָשַׂיא ) of the tribe of Gad at the time of the numbering of the people at Sinai ( Numbers 1:14; Numbers 7:42; Numbers 7:47; Numbers 10:20). B.C. ante 1657. The same man is mentioned again in 2:14, but here the name appears as REUEL (See Reuel) (q.v.), owing to an interchange of the two very similar Hebrew letters ד and ר . In this latter passage the Samaritan, Arabic, and Vulg. retain the D; the Sept., as in other places, has R. The greater weight of evidence is therefore in favor of the reading "Deuel" in both passages. Furst ingeniously suggests ( Heb. Handw. p. 304) that the name may have been originally Daruel ( דִּרְעוּאֵל ), which would explain the various reading.
