Boyd’s Bible Dictionary:
(dwelling). (1) Tenth son of Jacob, and sixth and last by Leah (Gen. 30:20; 35:23). Three sons are ascribed to him at the time of the migration to Egypt (Gen. 46:14). Zebulun was one of the six tribes stationed on Ebal to pronounce the curse (Deut. 27:13). The allotment of the tribe was bounded as in Joshua 19:10-16, and in general stretched from Acre to Jordan, taking in the plain of Esdraelon. The tribe did not expel the natives in its allotment, but associated with them and fell into easy commercial intercourse with Phoenicia on the west (Judg. 1:30). It became an idolatrous tribe (2 Chron. 30:10-18), and its territory was depopulated in the captivity of Israel by Tiglath-pileser (2 Kings 15:29). (2) A boundary place of Asher (Josh. 19:27).
