# Gaal: A Hebrew Figure of Revolt Gaal (H1603) appears nine times in the Hebrew Bible as a proper noun referring to a specific historical or legendary figure. Based on the limited lexical data provided, this entry identifies the name itself rather than a common word with semantic range. The transliteration "ga.al" preserves the Hebrew pronunciation, indicating this is a personal name rather than a descriptive term. Without additional context from the lexicon data—such as etymological information, narrative passages where Gaal appears, or associated meanings—the available information does not permit deeper analysis of why this figure is significant or what characterized his actions. The small number of occurrences (9) suggests Gaal appears in a confined textual tradition, possibly concentrated in a particular historical narrative within the biblical corpus. To understand Gaal's role and importance in biblical literature, one would need to consult the actual biblical passages where the name appears or additional lexical resources that provide historical and narrative context. The present entry confirms only that this individual was significant enough to be named in biblical texts, but the supplied lexicon data alone cannot explain his deeds or cultural importance.
