First, in plain English

Jacob's tenth son and Leah's last. His tribe's land ran up to the Sea of Galilee, and Isaiah names it with Naphtali as the place where a light would dawn, which Matthew applies to Jesus in Galilee.

Who this is

Zebulun was Jacob's tenth son, Leah's sixth and last, and his tribe's territory bordered the Sea of Galilee, making it, alongside neighboring Naphtali, part of the region Isaiah names as the place a coming light would dawn, a prophecy Matthew applies to Jesus's Galilean ministry.
