You will find Issachar first mentioned on the day he was born to Jacob (Israel) and his wife Leah (Genesis 30:18). Actually spelled "yissaskar or Jissaskar". It means he will bring a reward. A Strong's concordance-dictionary would help you discover where specific words and phrases are located in biblical text.
