The name of two Old Testament Israelites

Hanniel is mentioned in Numbers 34:23. In the context of Numbers 34, the chapter deals with the boundaries of the Promised Land that God instructed Moses to assign to the Israelites. Hanniel is listed among the leaders of the tribes who were appointed to assist in the division of the land among the tribes of Israel.
