Context: Achiezer is a biblical figure mentioned in the Old Testament. He is identified as the son of Ammishaddai and served as the leader of the tribe of Dan during the wilderness period of the Israelites. Achiezer is noted for his role in the census and organization of the tribes as they journeyed through the desert. His name appears in the context of the encampment and marching order of the Israelites, as well as in the offerings made by the leaders of the tribes.

In the Book of Numbers, Achiezer is mentioned in several key passages:
Numbers 1:12: "from Dan, Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai;"
Numbers 2:25: "On the north side, the divisions of Dan are to camp under their standard, with Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai as the leader of the Danites."
Numbers 7:66: "On the tenth day Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai, the leader of the Danites, drew near."
Numbers 10:25: "Finally, the divisions of the camp of Dan set out under their standard, with Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai as their leader."

Achiezer's role as a leader highlights the organizational structure and leadership within the Israelite community during their wilderness journey. His contributions to the offerings and his leadership position underscore the importance of the tribe of Dan in the collective life of the Israelites.
