Guni is mentioned inGenesis 46:24andNumbers 26:48as one of the sons of Naphtali, who was one of the twelve sons of Israel (or 'Jacob'). In the genealogy of Jacob's descendants who went to Egypt during the famine, Guni is listed among the sons of Naphtali. The descendants of Guni are referred to as the Gunites inNumbers 26:48, where they are counted as part of the tribe of Naphtali in the census taken in the wilderness. In1 Chronicles 7:13, Guni is again mentioned in the genealogy of Naphtali's descendants.
