Gad's name means "fortune" or "troop," reflecting the blessing Jacob gave him in <a href="/genesis/49-19.htm">Genesis 49:19</a>, where he is described as a warrior tribe. The tribe settled on the east side of the Jordan River, in a region known for its fertile land, which was suitable for their large herds of livestock. This location made them vulnerable to attacks, and they were known for their military prowess. Gad's position in the encampment around the Tabernacle was on the south side, alongside Reuben and Simeon, as described in <a href="/numbers/2.htm">Numbers 2</a>.<p><b>Eliasaph</b><br>Eliasaph means "God has added" or "God increases." Names in the Bible often carry significant meanings, reflecting the character or destiny of the individual. Eliasaph was a leader within the tribe of Gad, chosen to represent his tribe during the census and organization of the Israelites in the wilderness. His role as a leader indicates his standing and respect within the tribe, as well as his responsibility in the community's spiritual and military matters.<p><b>son of Deuel;</b><br>Deuel, sometimes spelled as Reuel in some manuscripts, means "friend of God." The mention of lineage is significant in the Bible, as it establishes identity, heritage, and authority. In the context of Numbers, the genealogy underscores the importance of family lines in the organization and leadership of the tribes. The name Deuel suggests a relationship with God, which may imply a family known for its faithfulness or divine favor. This lineage would have been important for maintaining tribal identity and cohesion during the Israelites' journey through the wilderness.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/g/gad.htm">Gad</a></b><br>One of the twelve tribes of Israel, named after Gad, the seventh son of Jacob and Zilpah, Leah's maidservant.
