Why isn't Zebulon near Sidon but Asher?

Accepted answer
The maps of the tribes of Israel contain a lot of guesswork. The tribe of Asher is one of them. No one is even sure whether Asher had a continuous territory.

Chuck Smith commented on this passage by saying, Zebulan has yet to do what God through Joseph said they can and they will do. Like many Christian, some people don't enter into the full potential God has destined for them because of distractions. Along with idolatry, and disobedience there was a lot of fearful people amongst the early tribes and this may have contributed to then not yet reaching their full potential and God given abilities.
