Igal
Igal
(Heb. Yigal’, , avenger), the name of three men. 1. (Sept. , Vulg. Igal, Eng. Vers. Igal.) Son of Joseph, and commissioner on the part of Issachar to explore the land of Canaan (Num 13:7). He of course perished with his nine false-hearted companions on their return (Num 14:37). B.C. 1657.
2. (Sept. , Vulg. Igaal, A.V. Igal.) Son of Nathan of Zobah, and one of David’s famous warriors (2Sa 23:36). B.C. 1046. In the parallel list of 1 Chronicles the name is given as Joel the brother of Nathan (11:38,). Kennicott, after a minute examination of the passage, both in the original and in the ancient versions, decides in favor of the latter as most likely to be the genuine text (Dissertion, p. 212-214).
3. (Sept. , Vulg. Jegaal, A.V. Igeal.) One of the sons of Shemaiah, of the descendants of Zerubbabel (1Ch 3:22). The number six there given is that of the grandchildren of Shechaniah (see Strong’s Harm. and Expos. of the Gosp. p. 17). B.C. ante 406.
