Genesis 49:5-7 Levi and Simeon Get Bumped from Firstborn Rights As Wel…
Reuben lost the firstborn right, which would have then come to Simeon and then Levi. They lost their right after the slaughter of the people of Shechem because of Shechem raping Dinah their sister.
It's prophetic here because Levi won't get any portion of the land as the Levites will priests all throughout the land. Their position will be redeemed later as they take sides with the Lord. Simeon will only get a small portion within the territory of Judah.
