Where Hiel appears in Scripture
בְּיָמָיו בָּנָה חִיאֵל בֵּית הָֽאֱלִי אֶת-יְרִיחֹה בַּֽאֲבִירָם בְּכֹרוֹ יִסְּדָהּ (ובשגיב) וּבִשְׂגוּב צְעִירוֹ הִצִּיב דְּלָתֶיהָ כִּדְבַר יְהוָה אֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר בְּיַד יְהוֹשֻׁעַ בִּן-נֽוּן׃
In his days did Hiel the Beth-elite build Jericho: he laid the foundation thereof in Abiram his firstborn, and set up the gates thereof in his youngest son Segub, according to the word of the LORD, which he spake by Joshua the son of Nun.
