Ahi

Ahi son of Abdiel was a chief of the Gadite clan mentioned in the genealogical record of the tribe of Gad settled in Gilead and Bashan (1 Chronicles 5:15). He is listed among the heads of ancestral houses in the territory east of the Jordan during the reign of Jotham king of Judah and Jeroboam king of Israel. His name, possibly meaning 'my brother,' was shared by several individuals in the Old Testament. Ahi's mention in the tribal genealogy of Gad reflects the careful clan-by-clan administrative records that underlaid the census and military organization of the Transjordanian tribes.
