Genesis 49:13
13 a“Zebulun shall dwell at the bshore of the sea;he shall become a haven for ships,
and his border shall be at Sidon.
Joshua 11:8-13
8And the Lord gave them into the hand of Israel, who struck them and chased them as far as cGreat Sidon and dMisrephoth-maim, and eastward as far as the Valley of eMizpeh. And they struck them until he left none remaining. 9And Joshua did to them fjust as the Lord said to him: he hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots with fire.10And Joshua turned back at that time and captured gHazor and struck its king with the sword, for Hazor formerly was the head of all those kingdoms. 11And they struck with the sword all who were in it, devoting them to destruction; ▼
▼That is, setting apart ( devoting) as an offering to the Lord (for destruction); also verses 12, 20, 21
ithere was none left that breathed. And he burned Hazor with fire. 12And all the cities of those kings, and all their kings, Joshua captured, and struck them with the edge of the sword, devoting them to destruction, jjust as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded. 13But none of the cities that stood on mounds did Israel burn, except Hazor alone; that Joshua burned.
