Genesis 46:16

And the sons of Gad
A son of Jacob by Zilpah, Leah's maid; for the historian, before he proceeds to give an account of his sons by Rachel, finishes the account of all his sons by Leah and her maid; Ziphion, and Haggi, Shuni, and Ezbon, and Eri, and Arodi, and Areli;
in all seven; the same number is given, and in the same order, ( Numbers 26:15-17 ) .
