Why does this say that Zebulun will dwell at the seashore when, in Joshua 19:10-16, which describes Zebulun's portion of Israel, they are not given a chunk of land on the shore? | ||||||
2 | Zebulun's territory | Gen 49:13 | BMyers | 219383 | ||
Notes from the ESV Study Bible: "Yet major trading routes from the coast, which lay about 10 miles (16 km) to the west, ran through the tribal region of Zebulun, providing an outlet to the sea, and involvement by Zebulunites in the coastal commerce of exporting and importing—and thus living in Sidon by the sea—may be the substantive fulfillment of Jacob's poetic words. Furthermore, if the name “Sidon” (one of Phoenicia's leading cities) is used here as a collective term to refer to Phoenicia in general, then the statement that his border shall be at Sidon is quite apt." |
