Zebulun, Lot of       in Galilee, to the north of Issachar and south of Asher and       Naphtali (Josh. 19:10-16), and between the Sea of Galilee and       the Mediterranean.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Zebulun, Tribe of       numbered at Sinai (Num. 1:31) and before entering Canaan       (26:27). It was one of the tribes which did not drive out the       Canaanites, but only made them tributary (Judg. 1:30). It took       little interest in public affairs. It responded, however,       readily to the summons of Gideon (6:35), and afterwards assisted       in enthroning David at Hebron (1 Chr. 12:33, 40). Along with the       other northern tribes, Zebulun was carried away into the land of       Assyria by Tiglath-pileser (2 Kings 15:29).                In Deborah's song the words, "Out of Zebulun they that handle       the pen of the writer" (Judg. 5:14) has been rendered in the       R.V., "They that handle the marshal's staff." This is a       questionable rendering. "The word _sopher_ ('scribe' or       'writer') defines the word _shebhet_ ('rod' or 'pen') with which       it is conjoined. The 'rod of the scribe' on the Assyrian       monuments was the stylus of wood or metal, with the help of       which the clay tablet was engraved, or the papyrus inscribed       with characters. The scribe who wielded it was the associate and       assistant of the 'lawgivers.'" (Sayce).
