Connection with Zebulun's land
Isaiah promised that the humbled land of Zebulun and Naphtali would one day be honoured. Matthew records that Jesus "went and lived in Capernaum, which is by the sea in the region of Zebulun and Naphtali" (Matthew 4:13). The land named for Leah's son received God in the flesh.
