Bible Person

Jeiel

Male · 1 cross reference

This Jeiel entry refers to a Reubenite chief in 1 Chronicles 5, not to the chief Levite, scribe, returnee-related father, or reform-list figures of the same name. He belongs to the remembered leadership of the eastern tribes. First appears in 1 Chr 5:7.1

AI summary: This Jeiel matters because his single cross reference places him among the heads of households through whom Reuben's identity is preserved east of the Jordan. The entry helps show that tribal memory in that region was carried by named leaders with local importance. Taken together, the material presents this Jeiel as a chief within Reuben's preserved structure.1
