Answer 1: Typical Judaism and Christianity
In typical Jewish and Christian discourse, the Twelve Tribes of Israel include: Reuben, Simeon, Judah, Issachar, Zebulon, Gad, Asher, Naphtali, Dan, Ephraim, Manasseh, and Benjamin. These accord almost exactly with the sons of Jacob with two major exceptions: Levi is excepted since the Levites were to be priests and therefore have no land associated with them. Joseph was so populous that his tribe was broken into the half-tribes of Ephraim and Manasseh.
In terms of offers, they each pledged a number of soldiers to defend the Israelite Tribes in general and a certain amount of taxes to pay for the upkeep of Shiloh and later Jerusalem.
