Explanation preview

This verse opens a short genealogical appendix that traces the family of Saul, Israel's first king, and it links that family to the town of Gibeon. Jeiel is called the father of Gibeon, which likely means he was the town's founder or leading ancestor rather than the literal parent of a place.
