יִגְאָל
Boy
The Biblical Era
In modern Hebrew, the name "יגאָל" sounds just like the verb "יגאַל" (the future tense masculine singular form of the verb לגאול [lig'ol]), which means: (he) will liberate.
Igal is the name of one of the spies Moses sent to search Canaan. This is also the name of one of King David's heros.
"And the Lord spake unto Moses saying: Send thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan which I give unto the children of Israel, of every tribe of their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a ruler among them... Of the tribe of Issachar, Igal the son of Joseph." Numbers 13, 1-7
