Issachar And Zebulun Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Apr 3, 2022

The sages read Genesis 49:13-15 very differently. They glorified Issachar while explaining away Zebulun's calm superiority in a way that does not denigrate Issachar. Zebulun was an aggressive tribe on the ascendancy, but Issachar was comparatively weak.

Issachar and Zebulun Among Jacob's sons from Leah, Issachar was the fifth and Zebulun the sixth (Genesis 30:18-20). 18Then Leah said, "God has given me my wages because I gave my maid to my husband." So she named him Issachar. 19Leah conceived again and bore a sixth son to Jacob. ...read more

Ruth, Boaz And Redemption Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jan 7, 2024

So why is it so important that we have a book of the Bible named Ruth? Because of the redemption story. It parallels our own redemption story. Ruth was cursed as a Moabite. We are cursed as children of Adam.

Why is it so important for us that we have a book of the Bible named Ruth? Why are the last verses of the book of Ruth almost the first ones opening the New Testament? The first three chapters of Ruth start to answer these questions, but chapter 4 gives us clarity on the reasons why. The Book of ...read more

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 4, 2025

With Israel’s defeat, all means were used against them in the name of hate. Ambushes and murder from Edom was despicable. God had not overlooked it. The end of Chapter 4 has Edom in God’s sights so the evil done to Israel will come hard on their own heads.
