pā´gi - el , pā´ji - el , pa - gı̄´el ( פּגעיאל , pagh‛ı̄'ēl , "God's intervention"): Son of Ocran, of the tribe of Asher, among those enrolled by Moses at the numbering of Israel (  Numbers 1:13;  Numbers 2:27 ). When the tabernacle was set up, the heads of the families of Israel "brought their offerings" in rotation, and Pagiel, as prince of his tribe, came on the 11th day ( Numbers 7:72 ).  Numbers 7:72-77 describes his offering. In the journeyings of Israel he was "over the host of the tribe of the children of Asher" (  Numbers 10:26 ), and possibly standard-bearer (compare  Numbers 10:14 ,  Numbers 10:22 ,  Numbers 10:25 ).
