“Of the children of Asher, by their generations, after their families, by the house of their fathers, according to the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that were able to go forth to war;”
From the children of Asher, their generations, by their clans, by their fathers' houses — Asher, the second son of Zilpah (Leah's maidservant), occupies a full tribal position in the census. Asher's tribal territory in the northwest (along Phoenicia) will make the tribe prosperous but potentially vulnerable to foreign religious influence.
