kem´ū́ - el , kḗ - mū´el ( קמוּאל , ḳemū'ēl , "God's mound"):

(1) Nephew of Abraham (Genesis 22:21 ), father of Aram, whom Ewald identifies with Ram of Job 32:2; but compare Genesis 10:22 , where Aram is described as one of the children of Shem. They may not be the same person.

(2) Prince of Ephraim, one of the land commissioners who divided Canaan (Numbers 34:24 ).

(3) A L evite, father of Hashabiah, one of the tribal princes of David's time, a ruler among the Levites (1 Chronicles 27:17 ).
