     The following is the results of your search for Simeon, The Tribe of.


Simeon, The Tribe of: Was "divided and scattered" according to the prediction in (Genesis 49:5-7) They gradually dwindled in number, and sank into a position of insignificance among the other tribes. They decreased in the wilderness by about two-thirds (comp.) (Numbers 1:23; 26:14) Moses pronounces no blessing on this tribe. It is passed by in silence (Deuteronomy 33:1)ff This tribe received as their portion a part of the territory already allotted to Judah (Joshua 19:1-9) It lay in the south-west of the land, with Judah on the east and Dan on the north; but whether it was a compact territory or not cannot be determined. The subsequent notices of this tribe are but few (1 Chronicles 4:24-43) Like Reuben on the east of Jordan, this tribe had little influence on the history of Israel.
