Usage: The name Gad is used in the Hebrew Bible to refer to: • The seventh son of Jacob, born to Zilpah, Leah's maidservant, and the founder of the tribe of Gad. • The tribe of Gad, one of the twelve tribes of Israel, which settled on the east side of the Jordan River. • A prophet during the time of King David. Context: • Gad, the Son of Jacob: Gad was the seventh son of Jacob and the firstborn of Zilpah, Leah's maidservant. His birth is recorded in Genesis 30:9-11, where Leah names him Gad, saying, "How fortunate!" (BSB). Gad's descendants formed one of the twelve tribes of Israel. • The Tribe of Gad: The tribe of Gad was known for its warrior-like nature and played a significant role in the conquest of the Promised Land. They settled in the region east of the Jordan River, an area known for its fertile land suitable for livestock. In Numbers 32, the Gadites, along with the Reubenites, request to settle in this region, and Moses grants their request on the condition that they assist in the conquest of Canaan. • Gad, the Prophet: Gad was a prophet who served during the reign of King David. He is first mentioned in 1 Samuel 22:5, where he advises David to leave the stronghold and go into the land of Judah.
