Exegesis
The prepositional phrase lĭ-ḇnê {לִבְנֵי | lĭ-ḇnê} ‘sons of’ forms a construct chain with Gad {גָד | gād} to specify the tribal subgroup. Hebrew omits an overt verb, creating a nominal clause that English completes with “was.”
In context — Numbers 2:14
And the tribe of Gad and the leader of the sons of Gad was Elyasaf , son of Reuel.
