Smith's Bible Dictionary [1]
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 .
Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible [2]
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).
Fausset's Bible Dictionary [3]
Numbers 1:14; Numbers 7:42; in Numbers 3:14 Reuel, the Hebrew letter Resh ( ר ) closely resembling the Hebrew letter Daleth ( ד ).
Morrish Bible Dictionary [4]
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).
Holman Bible Dictionary [5]

(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.
