Pallu, son of Reuben; ancestor of the Palluites, a Reubenite clan
A proper name possibly meaning 'distinguished' or 'separated,' borne by the second son of Reuben, Jacob's firstborn. Pallu appears in the genealogical lists tracing Reuben's descendants into Egypt (Gen 46:9), the priestly genealogy (Exod 6:14), the wilderness census and clan registry (Num 26:5, 8), and the Chronicler's tribal record (1 Chr 5:3). He is the ancestor of Eliab and through him of Dathan and Abiram, who later rebelled against Moses. Spanish 'Falú' reflects an alternate phonetic tradition, while French, English, and German consistently use 'Pallu.'
