Jabal; personal name, son of Lamech, father of tent-dwelling herdsmen
A personal name appearing only in Genesis 4:20, identifying one of Lamech's sons by Adah as 'the father of those who dwell in tents and have livestock.' Jabal represents the origin of pastoral nomadism in the Cainite genealogy. The name may relate to the Hebrew word for 'stream' or 'watercourse,' appropriate for a founder of shepherding. This single occurrence makes Jabal the eponymous ancestor of a whole way of life—tent-dwelling, animal-herding existence that characterized much of ancient Near Eastern culture.
