pa'-gi-el, pa'-ji-el, pa-gi'-el (pagh'i'el, "God's intervention"):
Son of Ocran, of the tribe of Asher, among those enrolled by Moses at the numbering
of Israel (Numbers 1:13 ; 2:27). When the tabernacle was set up, the heads of
the families of Israel "brought their offerings" in rotation, and Pagiel, as prince
of his tribe, came on the 11th day (Numbers 7:72). Numbers 7:72 - 77 describes
his offering. In the journeyings of Israel he was "over the host of the tribe
of the children of Asher" (Numbers 10:26), and possibly standard-bearer (compare
Numbers 10:14 , 22 , 25).
