In recent centuries the Book of Gad the Seer has been internationally recognized as having been found amongst age-old manuscripts preserved by the ancient Malabar (Black) Jews of Shingli/Cranganore (geographically located in modern day Cochin India).
Gad was the son of Ahimelech of the Jabez family of the tribe of Judah (Gad 1:53). He was mentioned in the “Western European Biblical Canon”, the writings of Josephus the Judean Historian, and in numerous other widely accepted scriptural and historical works. In Western European Canon he first appears in the Book of 1 Samuel 22:5 advising King David. He is then seen acting as a prophet on behalf of Israel throughout the Book of Samuel, with the last mention being 2 Samuel 24:18 where Gad advises David to build an altar on what would later become the site of the temple mount (Mount Moriah).
“Now the acts of David the king, first and last, behold, they are written in the book of Samuel the seer, and in the book of Nathan the prophet, and in the book of Gad the seer; with all his reign and his might, and the times that went over him, and over Israel, and over all the kingdoms of the countries.” 1 Chronicles 29:29-30
