Best Answer

The tribal arrangement in Israel was based on descent from the 12 sons of Jacob. These twelve family heads produced the "twelve tribes of Israel." Two Tribes made up the Northern Kingdom of Isarel, Judah and Benjamin. The other 10 Tribes made up the Southern Kingdom of Israel. 1 Kings 11:29-38
