<p> <strong> | <p> <strong> [[Abiel]] </strong> . <strong> 1 </strong> . Father of [[Kish]] and Ner, and grandfather of Saul ( 1 Samuel 9:1; 1 Samuel 14:51 ).

One of David’s heroes ( 1 Chronicles 11:32 ), from Beth-arabah in the wilderness of Judah ( Joshua 15:6; Joshua 15:61; Joshua 18:22 ). <strong> Abi-albon </strong> ( 2 Samuel 23:31 ) is a transcriber’s error, the eye having fallen on <em> albon </em> below: some codices of the [[Lxx]] [Note: Septuagint.] have <em> Abiel </em> : possibly the original was <em> Abibaal </em> . </p> <p> [[J.]] Taylor. </p> | ||

<p> ("father of strength".) </p> <p> 1. Father of Kish and of Ner; grandfather of Saul and of Abner, according to 1 Samuel 9:1; 1 Samuel 14:51. But Abiel seems to have had "Ner" as his second name (1 Chronicles 8:33; 1 Chronicles 9:35; 1 Chronicles 9:39, where Abiel is also called [[Jehiel]] and Saul is represented as his great grandson).

<p> 1. Father of Kish and of Ner and grandfather of Saul and of Abner. That this is the most probable genealogy is confirmed by Ner being said to be Saul's uncle, 1 Samuel 9:1; 1 Samuel 14:50,51; though in 1 Chronicles 8:33; 1 Chronicles 9:39 , Saul is said to be the son of Kish, the son of Ner. <i> This </i> Ner may have been an earlier ancestor; and here Abiel is not named at all. It was not unusual to leave out many names in the genealogies. </p> <p> 2. One of David's mighty men, 1 Chronicles 11:32; he is called Abi-Albon in 2 Samuel 23:31 . </p> | <p> 1.
