Gill's Notes on the Bible

On the third day Eliab the son of Helon, prince of the children of Zebulun, [did offer]. See Numbers 1:9.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The several princes make their offerings in the order assigned to the tribes Numbers 2:0. It was doubtless the tribes themselves which presented these gifts through their chiefs. The twelve offerings are strictly alike, and were offered on twelve separate days.
