THE 12 TRIBES OF ISRAEL
It is interesting to read about Jacob's 'blessings' that he bestowed upon his sons on his death bed. Here is a summary of what can be found in Genesis, Chapter 49.
-Ruben, the firstborn, the beginning of Jacob's strength yet would not excel.
-Simeon and Levi, instruments of cruelty; Jacob cursed their anger and their wrath.
-Judah; blessed fully.
-Zebulun, a haven for ships.
-Issachar, strong, servant unto tribute.
-Dan; a judge to his people.
-Gad; overcome, but will again overcome.
-Asher; bread shall be fat; yield royal dainties.
-Naphtali; giveth goodly words.
-Jacob; the fruitful bough.
-Benjamin; raven as a wolf.
