According to the Bible, the Israelites were the descendants of the Biblical patriarch Jacob. They were divided into twelve tribes, each descended from one of twelve sons or grandsons of Jacob. The term Israelite derives from Israel (Hebrew: ????? (Standard Yisra?el Tiberian Yisra?el)), the name given to Jacob after the death of Isaac. (Genesis 32:28-29). His descendants are called the House of Jacob, the Children of Israel, the People of Israel, or the Israelites. The Israelites were divided along family lines, each called a shevet or mateh in Hebrew meaning literally a \staff\ or \ od\. The term is conventionally translated as \ ribe\ in English, although the divisions were not small isolated distinct ethnic groups in the modern sense of the term.
In Egypt the house of Joseph was divided into two tribes, Ephraim and Manasseh, by virtue of Jacob\'s blessing. (Genesis 48:8-21). Some English speaking Jewish groups view the pronunciation, English transcription and Hebrew spelling of the tribal names to be extremely important. The transcriptions and spellings are as follows:
Reuben: ?????, Standard R??uven, Tiberian R????en
Simeon: ?????, Standard im?on, Tiberian im?n
Levi: ???, Standard Levi, Tiberian Lew (which did not share in the apportionment of the Land)
Judah: ?????, Standard Y?huda, Tiberian Y?h??ah
Dan: ??, Standard Dan, Tiberian Dan
Naphtali: ?????, Standard Naftali, Tiberian Nap¯tal
Gad: ??, Standard Gad, Tiberian Ga?
Asher: ???, Standard Aer, Tiberian ?Aer
Issachar: ?????, Standard Yissa?ar, Tiberian Yiss?ar
Zebulun: ?????, Standard Z?v?lun, Tiberian Z???lun
Joseph: ????, Standard Yosef, Tiberian Ysep, containing the tribes:
*Manasseh: ????, Standard M?nae, Tiberian M?naeh, Samaritan Manatch
*Ephraim: ?????, Standard Efryim, Tiberian ?Epryim / ?Eprayim, Samaritan Afrime
