Names often held significant meaning, reflecting the character or destiny of the individual. The name Paltiel suggests a reliance on God for deliverance, which is a recurring theme throughout the Bible. Azzan, though not widely mentioned elsewhere, signifies the importance of family heads in maintaining tribal identity and leadership.<p><b>a leader from the tribe of Issachar</b><br>Issachar was one of the twelve tribes of Israel, descended from Jacob's son Issachar.

Leaders from Issachar were often seen as insightful and strategic, playing crucial roles in guiding the nation. The tribe's territory was located in a fertile region, which contributed to its prosperity and influence.
