Brotherly Love
Each of the twelve tribes of Israel received a specific portion of the Land of Israel, corresponding to that tribe's unique spiritual attributes. The sons of Zevulun (Zebulon), who were given a coastal territory as their inheritance, became successful sea merchants and entered into a special partnership with the tribe of Yissaschar. According to the arrangement they forged, members of the tribe of Zevulun would use some of their commercial profits to financially support the sons of Yissaschar, noted scholars who would devote their energies to full time Torah (Bible) study. In turn, they would share the spiritual revenue and heavenly reward of their joint ventures. Today as well, in many Israeli communities it is common practice for business people to seek out a spiritual partner supporting the learning of a Torah scholar in a mutually beneficial partnership.
