Quick answer

Nethanel son of Zuar is appointed for Issachar. Each tribe receives a recognized leader for the count.

Overview

Issachar's representative joins the roll of those who would assist Moses and Aaron. The name Nethanel means 'God has given,' a reminder that leaders themselves are gifts from God to His people. The thoroughness of the list shows God's attention to every tribe, none overlooked.
