☩Identity
Jeuel was a descendant of Zerah of the tribe of Judah who, with his kindred numbering 690 persons, resided in Jerusalem after the return from captivity. The name is also written Jeiel in some passages and appears to be a variant spelling of the same name. Several other men bore this name: a Levite who participated in cleansing the Temple during Hezekiah's reign, and a companion of Ezra who returned from exile.
