Zebulun

Portrait of Zebulun

Zebulun was a son of Leah and one of the sons of Jacob, listed with his brothers Reuben, Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar and sister Dinah. He joined Issachar in drawing near to break the doors of a city during an assault. An enemy seized him as a young lad of short stature and dashed him to the ground, after which Jacob killed the attacker whose body fell upon him. Zebulun later went to Midian, took Merishah daughter of Molad as wife, and brought her to the land of Canaan.
