- Personal name meaning, Troop. The seventh son of Jacob and the progenitor of the tribe of Gad (Gen 30:9-11). His mother was Leah’s maid Zilpah. At the conclusion of the period of wilderness wandering, when the Israelites were preparing to occupy Canaan, the tribe of Gad requested permission, along with the tribe of Reuben and half the tribe of Manasseh, to settle east of the Jordan. Their reason was that they owned large numbers of livestock and the territory east of the Jordan was particularly suitable for raising livestock (Num 32). This territory became known as Gad (Jer 49:1). Though the exact limits of Gad’s tribal territory are difficult to determine, the Gadites generally occupied land to the northeast of the Dead Sea (Josh 13:24-28).
