Ministry on This Verse

Num. 1:8,28‑29• 8for Issachar, Nethaneel the son of Zuar;
 28Of the sons of Issachar: their generations, after their families, according to their fathers' houses, by the number of the names, from twenty years old and upward, all that went forth to military service:
 29those that were numbered of them, of the tribe of Issachar, were fifty-four thousand four hundred. (Num. 1:8,28‑29)
;
Num. 7:18,23• 18On the second day offered Nethaneel the son of Zuar, prince of Issachar;
 23and for a sacrifice of peace-offering, two oxen, five rams, five he-goats, five yearling lambs. This was the offering of Nethaneel the son of Zuar. (Num. 7:18,23)
;
Num. 10:15• 15and over the host of the tribe of the children of Issachar was Nethaneel the son of Zuar; (Num. 10:15)
;
Num. 26:23‑25• 23The sons of Issachar, after their families: of Tola, the family of the Tolaites; of Puah, the family of the Punites;
 24of Jashub, the family of the Jashubites; of Shimron, the family of the Shimronites.
 25These are the families of Issachar according to those that were numbered of them, sixty-four thousand three hundred. (Num. 26:23‑25)
• The next tribe was Issachar. It is often difficult really to get at the true meaning of names in the Old Testament, but in the names of the tribes there is no difficulty at all. We can turn to Genesis and see the reason of the names being given. Issachar means “an hire” (Gen. 30:18), and it is suggestive of labor. “The laborer is worthy of his hire.” And you know an indolent, lazy Christian is never a happy one. The one who does nothing for the Lord is never happy; and if not happy, not praiseful. The Lord has something for us all to do. It is possible instead of having the Lord before you, to have your service before you; and you will not be happy then. (“Chapter 2.” by J.A. Taylor, of Worthing)
