The sons and chief men of Benjamin33. The stock of Saul and Jonathan Jeiel the father of Gibeon The name "Jeiel" is derived from the Hebrew root "יְעִיאֵל" (Yeiel), meaning "God sweeps away" or "God gathers." This name reflects a divine action, suggesting that Jeiel's life and legacy were under God's providential care. As the "father of Gibeon," Jeiel is recognized as a patriarchal figure, indicating his significant role in the establishment or leadership of the city of Gibeon. Gibeon itself was a prominent city in ancient Israel, known for its strategic location and its inhabitants' covenant with Joshua (Joshua 9). This highlights the importance of Jeiel's lineage and the divine orchestration in the history of Israel. lived in Gibeon His wife’s name was Maacah 1Chronicles 8:29-38 recur at 1Chronicles 9:35-44. (29) At Gibeon dwelt the father of Gibeon.--His name (Jehiel) has been accidentally omitted. (See 1Chronicles 9:35.) The verb dwelt is plural, "they dwelt;" a sufficient indication that the "father of Gibeon" merely represents the original population of that place under a collective name. Maachah would be a place in the neighbourhood. Gibeon.--Now el-Jib, about eight miles north-west of Jerusalem. . . .

And apparently the same account, minus some of its deficiencies, is repeated in the next chapter, vers. 35-44. The two may be taken together here, and the latter will help the interpretation of the former. Verse 29. - The father - i.e, the chief - of Gibeon. (For Gibeon, see Joshua 9:3, 7-18; Joshua 10:2; Joshua 11:19; Nehemiah 7:25; Nehemiah 3:7.) The father of Gibeon (1 Chronicles 9:35) was Jehiel (יְעִיאֵל; Chethiv spells with vau; not יְחִיאֵל, 1 Chronicles 15:24). Of Jehiel by this name we do not elsewhere read. And even if it were on other grounds possible to identify the person with the Abiel of 1 Samuel 9:1 and 1 Sam 14:51, it is not possible to identify the names. Compare the similar remarkable omission of the name of the "father of Gibea" (1 Chronicles 2:49), an omission to be filled very possibly by this same name Jehiel.Parallel Commentaries ...
