From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Hiel
     life of (i.e., from) God, a native of Bethel, who built (i.e.,
     fortified) Jericho some seven hundred years after its
     destruction by the Israelites. There fell on him for such an act
     the imprecation of Joshua (6:26). He laid the foundation in his
     first-born, and set up the gates in his youngest son (1 Kings


     16:34), i.e., during the progress of the work all his children
     died.
     

From Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary (late 1800's) [hitchcock]:

  Hiel, God lives; the life of God
