Commentators explain that Zebulun's border extending westward toward the sea is not a random detail. It is a direct fulfillment of prophecies made centuries earlier by Jacob (Genesis 49:13) and Moses (Deuteronomy 33:19) that the tribe would dwell by the sea. This shows God's faithfulness in bringing His specific promises to pass, even in the details of geographical boundaries.
