From his sons rose
Abimelech – Judge.
Two who would rise to claim the Throne of the Northern Tribes.
Baasha and his son Elan – Their line died off!
Though descendants of Issachar, they were not the sons I pray will arise.
Baasha – meaning “Boldness”. The bloody seizer of a throne, Usurper, murderer.
Elan – meaning oak. 4th King of Israel. Last of his line. Drunk asleep when Zimri, a chamberlain, murders him and his family.
Issarchar whose royal line began in murder and ended in murder. May his tribe arise? No, may a different type of sons of Issachar arise!
Men like those who answered the Call of David.
May those sons of Issachar arise!
