Jahleel is identified as one of the sons of Zebulun, making the Jahleelites part of the tribe of Zebulun, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. The reference to Jahleel and his descendants is found in the Old Testament, specifically in the Book of Genesis.<br><br><b>Biblical Reference:</b><br><br>· <b><a href="/genesis/46-14.htm">Genesis 46:14</a> :</b> "The sons of Zebulun: Sered, Elon, and Jahleel."<br><br>In this passage, Jahleel is listed as one of the three sons of Zebulun. The genealogical records in <a href="/bsb/genesis/46.htm">Genesis 46</a> are part of the larger narrative detailing the descendants of Jacob (Israel) who went to Egypt during the time of Joseph. This listing is significant as it establishes the familial lines that would later form the tribes of Israel, each with its own distinct identity and inheritance in the Promised Land.<br><br><b>Tribal Significance:</b><br><br>The tribe of Zebulun, to which the Jahleelites belonged, was one of the northern tribes of Israel. According to the blessings given by Jacob and Moses, Zebulun was to dwell by the seashore and engage in trade. The Jahleelites, as part of this tribe, would have shared in the tribal inheritance and responsibilities.<br><br>· <b><a href="/genesis/49-13.htm">Genesis 49:13</a> :</b> "Zebulun shall dwell by the seashore and become a harbor for ships; his border shall extend to Sidon."<br><br>· <b><a href="/deuteronomy/33-18.htm">Deuteronomy 33:18-19</a> :</b> "About Zebulun he said: 'Rejoice, Zebulun, in your journeys, and Issachar, in your tents. They will summon the peoples to the mountain, and there they will offer sacrifices of righteousness; for they will feast on the abundance of the seas and the hidden treasures of the sand.'"<br><br>These blessings highlight the maritime and commercial nature of Zebulun's territory, suggesting that the Jahleelites, as part of this tribe, may have been involved in such activities.<br><br><b>Historical Context:</b><br><br>The Jahleelites, like other sub-groups within the tribes of Israel, would have played a role in the collective history of the nation. This includes participation in the conquest of Canaan under Joshua, the period of the Judges, and the eventual establishment of the monarchy. The tribal affiliations were crucial for maintaining the social and religious structure of ancient Israel.<br><br><b>Cultural and Religious Role:</b><br><br>As members of the tribe of Zebulun, the Jahleelites would have been part of the covenant community of Israel, participating in the religious festivals, sacrifices, and observances prescribed by the Mosaic Law. The tribe of Zebulun, along with Issachar, was noted for its willingness to support the central sanctuary and the worship of Yahweh.<br><br>· <b><a href="/1_chronicles/12-33.htm">1 Chronicles 12:33</a> :</b> "From Zebulun, 50,000 fit for service, prepared for battle with all the weapons of war, who with one purpose were loyal to David."<br><br>This passage, while not directly mentioning the Jahleelites, underscores the loyalty and unity of the tribe of Zebulun during the time of King David, suggesting that the Jahleelites would have shared in this collective identity and purpose.<br><br>In summary, the Jahleelites, as descendants of Jahleel, were an integral part of the tribe of Zebulun, contributing to the social, economic, and religious life of ancient Israel. Their mention in the genealogical records serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of the tribal system established by the patriarchs.<a name="cnc" id="cnc"></a><div class="vheading">Concordance</div><span class="encheading">Jahleelite (1 Occurrence)</span><p><span class="rtext"><a href="/numbers/26-26.htm">Numbers 26:26</a></span><br />The sons of Zebulun after their families: of Sered, the family of the Seredites; of Elon, the family of the Elonites; of Jahleel, the family of the Jahleelites.<br /><span class="source">(Root in WEB KJV JPS ASV BBE DBY WBS YLT NAS NIV)</span><a name="thes" id="thes"></a><div class="vheading2">Thesaurus</div><a href="/topical/j/jahleelite.htm"><span class="l"><b>Jahleelite</b> (1 Occurrence)</span></a><br><b>...</b> Multi-Version Concordance <b>Jahleelite</b> (1 Occurrence).
