Gamaliel.
Num. 1:10• 10Of the children of Joseph: of Ephraim; Elishama the son of Ammihud: of Manasseh; Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. (Num. 1:10)
;
Num. 7:54,59• 54On the eighth day offered Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur, prince of the children of Manasseh:
 59And for a sacrifice of peace offerings, two oxen, five rams, five he goats, five lambs of the first year: this was the offering of Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. (Num. 7:54,59)
;
Num. 10:23• 23And over the host of the tribe of the children of Manasseh was Gamaliel the son of Pedahzur. (Num. 10:23)
• {v.20-22} But the two associated with Ephraim are Manasseh and Benjamin. Manasseh means “Forgetting,” and Benjamin, “Son of my right hand.” We know who the Son of the Right Hand is; ―the One to whom God has said, “Sit on My right hand, until I make Thy foes Thy footstool.” If we turn to Philippians 3 we shall see this truth brought out there. The apostle has his eye on One at God’s right hand, and will not be satisfied till he reaches Him, ―the goal he is running to. So in verse 13, “Forgetting [Manasseh] those things which are behind,”―the things of the world, the things the other side of His grave. Another way we may look at it is this. Let us forget everything in our past life that would minister to our pride. If we dwell with complacency on anything we have done we defile ourselves, and dishonor God. Hide it from yourself. But let us remember anything that will humble us. Then have Christ before the soul as Paul had Him in verse 14. He would not be satisfied till he reaches the Man in the glory, and then he would be perfected, forever conformed to His image. (“Chapter 2.” by J.A. Taylor, of Worthing)
