Shemot 1:3 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 1:3

Issachar, Zebulun
The other two sons of Jacob, by Leah:

Benjamin;
the youngest of all Jacob's sons is placed here, being his son by his beloved wife Rachel. Joseph is not put into the account, because he did not go into Egypt with Jacob.

Shemot 1:3 In-Context

1 Now these are the Shemot Bnei Yisroel, which came into Mitzrayim; every ish and his bais came with Ya’akov:
2 Reuven, Simeon, Levi, and Yehudah,
3 Yissakhar, Zevulun, and Binyamin,
4 Dan, and Naphtali, Gad, and Asher.
5 And all the nefesh that came out of the loins of Ya’akov were seventy nefesh; for Yosef was in Mitzrayim already.
