Hadad is mentioned inGenesis 25:15and1 Chronicles 1:30as one of the twelve sons of Ishmael, who was the son of Abraham and Hagar. Ishmael's sons, including Hadad, are described as tribal rulers, suggesting that they became leaders of their own clans or tribes. The listing of Ishmael's sons in these passages is part of the genealogical record of Abraham's descendants.
