In characteristics: The tribe never played an important role in Israel among the other tribes. They disappeared early in Hebrew history. {See: ""The founders and rulers of United Israel: from the death of Moses to the division of the Hebrew Kingdom""} (p. 30) They are remembered for being tent dwellers whose most notable construction was a single stone to serve as a landmark for their tribe, while producing no figures of significance in theology, the judiciary, gallantry, royalty, or celebrity. They were said to be news gossipers content with herding and spoiled as descendants of Jacob's first child, while being unstable and weak. {See: ""A dictionary of the Bible: comprising its antiquities, biography, geography, and natural history""} (p. 1033) {See: ""The sons of Jacob and their tribal blessings character studies: A series of Sunday afternoon addresses""} (p. 1-21)
