<p> (Heb. Deuel,; דְּעוּאֵל, according to Gesenius, '' | <p> (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. </p> | ||
