0 scripture references — Nave's Topical Bible

Overview

Gaddi son of Susi was chosen by Moses as one of twelve spies to explore Canaan before Israel's conquest (Numbers 13:11). He represented the tribe of Manasseh and was among those who spent forty days surveying the land. While all twelve spies returned with their report, Scripture gives no specific details about Gaddi's personal observations or stance regarding the land.

Key Scriptures

"These are the names of the men whom Moses sent to spy out the land" (Numbers 13:16a, ESV). "And they returned from spying out the land after forty days" (Numbers 13:25, ESV). "So they went up and spied out the land from the wilderness of Zin to Rehob, near the entrance of Hamath" (Numbers 13:21, ESV).

Application

Gaddi's inclusion among the twelve spies reminds us that God calls ordinary believers to participate in His plans, whether their individual stories are recorded in detail or simply part of the larger narrative of faith.
