Jeiel

Male · 1 cross reference

This Jeiel entry refers to the father of Benaiah in the prophetic setting of 2 Chronicles 20, not to the Reubenite chief, Levites, or returnee-family figures of the same name. He belongs to the family line connected with Jahaziel's Spirit-inspired message. First appears in 2 Chr 20:14.1

AI summary: This Jeiel matters because his single cross reference helps locate the family line from which Jahaziel's prophetic encouragement emerges in Judah's crisis. Even a brief genealogical notice can matter when it frames a moment of divine guidance. Taken together, the material presents this Jeiel as a familial source connected to prophetic reassurance in Jehoshaphat's day.1
