Eliasaph, the son of Deuel (or Reuel), is mentioned in Num.1.14; 2.14; 7.42,47; and Num 10:20 as the leader of the tribe of Gad during the Israelites' wilderness journey. He was appointed as the representative of his tribe during the census conducted by Moses and Aaron (Num 1:14). Eliasaph's tribe, along with the tribes of Reuben and Simeon, camped on the south side of the tabernacle (Num 2:14). As the leader, Eliasaph presented the offering of the tribe of Gad during the dedication of the tabernacle (Num.7.42,47). He also led his tribe in the order of march when the Israelites set out from Mount Sinai (Num 10:20).
