Genesis 30:20
Context30:20 Then Leah said, “God has given me a good gift. Now my husband will honor me because I have given him six sons.” So she named him Zebulun. 1
Genesis 45:13
Context45:13 So tell 2 my father about all my honor in Egypt and about everything you have seen. But bring my father down here quickly!” 3
1 sn The name Zebulun (זְבֻלוּן, zevulun) apparently means “honor.” The name plays on the verb used in the statement made earlier in the verse. The Hebrew verb translated “will honor” and the name Zebulun derive from the same root.
2 tn The perfect verbal form with the vav consecutive here expresses instruction.
3 tn Heb “and hurry and bring down my father to here.”
