NAPHTALI/ Samoans, Native Hawaiians, Argentina, Chile. In biblical times, one of the 12 tribes that, under the leadership of Joshua, took possession of Canaan, the Promised Land, after the death of Moses. The tribe was named after the younger of two sons born to Jacob and Bilhah, a maidservant of Jacob’s second wife, Rachel. After Joshua led the people of Israel into the Promised Land, he divided the new territory among the 12 tribes, assigning a region northwest of the Sea of Galilee to the tribe of Naphtali.
