What is Galaad?

Galaad is the spelling used in the Latin Vulgate and the Douay-Rheims translation for Gilead. In the King James Version Jacob fled from Laban, passed over the river, and set his face toward the mount Gilead (Genesis 31:21), and the children of Reuben and the children of Gad saw that the land of Gilead was a place for cattle (Numbers 32:1).
