Pedahzur was the father of Gamaliel, who was the leader of the tribe of Manasseh during Israel's wilderness wanderings. In the census taken in the wilderness of Sinai, Gamaliel son of Pedahzur was counted as the leader of Manasseh (Num.1.10; 2.20). When the Israelites made offerings at the dedication of the tabernacle, Gamaliel brought his tribe's offering on the eighth day (Numbers 7:54,59). Gamaliel also led the tribe of Manasseh when the Israelites set out from the wilderness of Sinai (Numbers 10:23). Pedahzur is only mentioned in reference to his son's leadership role.
