Abdiel
Who he was
Abdiel is mentioned in 1 Chronicles 5:15 as a leader of the tribe of Gad during the time of Jotham, king of Judah. He is described as the son of Guni and a chief of his father's house. The Gadites were one of the Israelite tribes that settled east of the Jordan River. The mention of Abdiel in the genealogical record of 1 Chronicles suggests that he was a significant figure among the Gadites and that his family held a prominent position within the tribe.
