The Tribes of Israel

Question

Good afternoon my name is Jonathan and I was just wondering if the tribes were only named after Jacob’s sons or if they were the actual leaders of each tribe

    Hello, Jonathan! The Tribes are named after Jacob’s sons. None of the princes of the Tribes had the name of their Tribe.
