NASB | Genesis 49:13 ¶ "Zebulun will dwell at the seashore; And he shall be a haven for ships, And his flank shall be toward Sidon. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | Genesis 49:13 ¶ "Zebulun shall dwell at the seashore; And he shall be a haven (landing place) for ships, And his flank shall be toward Sidon. |
Bible Question: 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? |
Bible Answer: i believe your answer lies in Gen 49:1 where the introductory verse to that chapter says: 'And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days.' all of the sons of israel are told what will befall their tribes in the 'last days.' it is probable that their descendants in modern times are collected in such a location. |
