Jacob & Bilhah ( Hand Maiden of Rachel )
5th Son of Jacob & 1st Son of Bilhah
Genesis 30:1 Now when Rachel saw that she bore Jacob no children, she became jealous of her sister; and she said to Jacob, “Give me children, or else I die.” 2 Then Jacob’s anger burned against Rachel, and he said, “Am I in the place of God, who has withheld from you the fruit of the womb?” 3 She said, “Here is my maid Bilhah, go in to her that she may bear on my knees, that through her I too may have children.” 4 So she gave him her maid Bilhah as a wife, and Jacob went in to her. 5 Bilhah conceived and bore Jacob a son. 6 Then Rachel said, “God has vindicated me, and has indeed heard my voice and has given me a son.” Therefore she named him Dan. (NASB)

Banner Symbols
Dan has two symbols:
The Serpent: This is the most familiar one and it depicts the description which Jacob gave to his son in prophecy, “Dan shall be a serpent by the way,” (Genesis 49:17)
The Scales: This speaks of the true judgment which is the Responsibility of every Danite. Dan is called and ordained to execute righteous judgment among God’s people because of the gift of discernment which God has given to him.

SAPPHIRE
Exodus 24:10; 28:18; 39:11; Job 28:6,16; Song of Solomon 5:14; Isa 54:11; Ezekiel 1:26; 10:1; 28:13, Revelation 21:20
Sapphire
The gemstone, sapphire, that we know today is the blue, translucent variety of corundum. The sapphire gets it’s blue color from small amounts of iron and titanium and ranges from a pale, ice blue to deep cobalt blue. Kashmir, India was one of the earliest sources of fine sapphires. These mines produced a cornflower blue sapphire to which all other sapphires are compared. Our modern term sapphire comes from the Greek sapphiros which is from the Hebrew sapir (or capir). The term sapphire appears many times in the Bible (see references above), however, the stone we associate with sapphire today was not known in Bible lands until the Roman Empire (300 BC). Initially they were considered forms of jacinth. The sapphiros of the Bible is described by historian Elder Pliny as "refulgent with spots like gold. It is also of an azure color...the best kind being that which comes from Media. In no case, however, is this stone transparent." These characteristics describe more accurately the lapis lazuli, and not the sapphire of today. See Lapis lazuli and Jacinth.
