Zebulun

Zebulun was the tenth son of Jacob and the sixth and last son of Leah. He had three sons. On Jacob's deathbed he blessed his sons and said, "Zebulun shall dwell at the shore of the sea." The land allotted to the tribe of Zebulun after the conquest of Canaan was a fertile land and included part of the mountainous area of lower Galilee and part of the Valley of Jezreel.

Zebulun is mentioned in Genesis 30:20; 35:23; 46:14; 49:13; Exodus 1:3; and 1 Chronicles 2:1.
