Usage: Guni is used as a personal name in the Old Testament. It appears in genealogical contexts, identifying individuals within the tribes of Israel. Context: Guni is mentioned in the Hebrew Bible as a descendant of Naphtali, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. Specifically, Guni is listed as one of the sons of Naphtali in Genesis 46:24 and 1 Chronicles 7:13. The tribe of Naphtali is one of the northern tribes of Israel, and Guni's descendants are referred to as the Gunites.
