It is used to identify the father of the prophet Joel.<p><span class="tophdg">Cultural and Historical Background: </span>In the context of ancient Israel, names often held significant meaning and were sometimes indicative of the character or destiny of the individual. The name Pethuel, with its reference to God, suggests a family with a strong spiritual heritage. The mention of Pethuel in the Bible is brief, but it situates Joel within a lineage that acknowledges divine influence and authority.<div class="vheading2">NAS Exhaustive Concordance</div><span class="hdg">Word Origin</span><br>from <a href="/hebrew/6601.htm">pathah</a><br><span class="hdg">Definition</span><br>father of the prophet Joel<br><span class="hdg">NASB Translation</span><br>Pethuel (1).<p><div align="center"><span class="smalltext"><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/nasec.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe></span></div><div class="vheading2">Brown-Driver-Briggs</div> <font class="hebrew2">מְּתוּאֵל</font> <font size="+1" color="#552200"><b>proper name, masculine</b></font> <font size="+1"><b>father of prophet Joel</b></font> <a href="/interlinear/joel/1-1.htm">Joel 1:1</a> (<font class="hebrew2">ᵐ5</font> <font face="Gentium,Galatia SIL,SBL Greek,GFS Porson,Times New Roman">Βαθουηλ</font>, i.e. <font class="hebrew2">בְּתוּאֵל</font>). <br><br><iframe width="100%" height="85" scrolling=no src="/bsoft2.htm" frameborder=0 cellpadding=0></iframe><div class="vheading2">Strong's Exhaustive Concordance</div>Pethuel <p>From <a href="/hebrew/6601.htm">pathah</a> and <a href="/hebrew/410.htm">'el</a>; enlarged of God; Pethuel, an Israelite -- Pethuel. <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/6601.htm">pathah</a> <p>see HEBREW <a href="/hebrew/410.htm">'el</a> <div class="vheading2">Forms and Transliterations</div>פְּתוּאֵֽל׃ פתואל׃ pə·ṯū·’êl pəṯū’êl petuEl<div class="vheading2">Links</div><a href="/interlinear/matthew/1-1.htm">Interlinear Greek</a> • <a href="/interlinear/genesis/1-1.htm">Interlinear Hebrew</a> • <a href="/strongs.htm">Strong's Numbers</a> • <a href="/englishmans_greek.htm">Englishman's Greek Concordance</a> • <a href="/englishmans_hebrew.htm">Englishman's Hebrew Concordance</a> • <a href="/texts/matthew/1-1.htm">Parallel Texts</a></div></div><div id="centbox"><div class="padcent"><div class="vheading">Englishman's Concordance</div><b><a href="/text/joel/1-1.htm" title="Biblos Lexicon">Joel 1:1</a> </b><br><a href="/interlinear/joel/1.htm" title="Hebrew">HEB:</a> <span class="hebrew3">יוֹאֵ֖ל בֶּן־ <b> פְּתוּאֵֽל׃ </b> </span><br><a href="http://biblehub.com/nas/joel/1.htm" title="New American Standard Bible">NAS:</a> to Joel, the son <span class="itali">of Pethuel:</span><br><a href="/kjvs/joel/1.htm" title="King James Bible with Strong's">KJV:</a> that came to Joel the son <span class="itali">of Pethuel.</span><br><a href="/interlinear/joel/1-1.htm" title="Biblos Interlinear Bible">INT:</a> Joel the son <span class="itali">of Pethuel</span><p><i><a href="/hebrew/strongs_6602.htm">1 Occurrence</a></i><br /><br /><b><a href="/hebrew/strongs_6602.htm">Strong's Hebrew 6602<br>1 Occurrence</a></b><br><br><a href="/hebrew/petuel_6602.htm">pə·ṯū·’êl — 1 Occ.</a><br></div></div></td></tr></table></div><div id="mdd"><div align="center"><div class="bot2"><table align="center" width="100%"><tr><td><div align="center"> <script id="3d27ed63fc4348d5b062c4527ae09445"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=51ce25d5-1a8c-424a-8695-4bd48c750f35&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script> <script id="b817b7107f1d4a7997da1b3c33457e03"> (new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=cb0edd8b-b416-47eb-8c6d-3cc96561f7e8&cid=3a9f82d0-4344-4f8d-ac0c-e1a0eb43a405'; </script><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-2'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-0' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-3'> </div><br /><br />  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1529103594582-1' style='max-width: 300px;'> </div><br /><br />  <div align="center" id='div-gpt-ad-1531425649696-0'> </div><br /><br /> <ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:200px;height:200px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-3753401421161123" data-ad-slot="3592799687"></ins> <script> (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); </script><br /><br /> </div> <div id="left"><a href="/hebrew/6601b.htm" onmouseover='lft.src="/leftgif.png"' onmouseout='lft.src="/left.png"' title="6601b"><img src="/left.png" name="lft" border="0" alt="6601b" /></a></div><div id="right"><a href="/hebrew/6603.htm" onmouseover='rght.src="/rightgif.png"' onmouseout='rght.src="/right.png"' title="6603"><img src="/right.png" name="rght" border="0" alt="6603" /></a></div><div id="botleft"><a href="#" onmouseover='botleft.src="/botleftgif.png"' onmouseout='botleft.src="/botleft.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botleft.png" name="botleft" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="botright"><a href="#" onmouseover='botright.src="/botrightgif.png"' onmouseout='botright.src="/botright.png"' title="Top of Page"><img src="/botright.png" name="botright" border="0" alt="Top of Page" /></a></div><div id="bot"><iframe width="100%" height="1500" scrolling="no" src="/botmenubhchap.htm" frameborder="0"></iframe></div></td></tr></table></div></body></html>
