Nethanel; a theophoric personal name meaning 'God has given,' borne by multiple Israelite leaders.
A compound theophoric name formed from natan ('to give') and 'El ('God'), Nethanel means 'God has given' -- a Hebrew counterpart to the Greek Nathanael of the New Testament. The name is borne by at least ten distinct individuals spanning the wilderness period to the post-exilic era. Its most prominent bearer is the chieftain of Issachar who appears five times in Numbers (1:8; 2:5; 7:18, 23; 10:15), presenting his tribe's dedication offering. Other Nethanels include a Levitical musician in David's procession (1 Chr 15:24), a gatekeeper among the sons of Obed-edom (1 Chr 26:4), a prince sent by Jehoshaphat to teach in the cities of Judah (2 Chr 17:7), and a priest in Nehemiah's time (Neh 12:21, 36).
