Of Dan Judah shall go up The phrase "Judah shall go up" signifies the tribe of Judah being chosen to lead the conquest of the land. In Hebrew, "Judah" (יְהוּדָה, Yehudah) is derived from the root word יָדָה (yadah), meaning "to praise." This reflects Judah's role as a leader and a tribe of praise and strength. Historically, Judah was one of the most prominent tribes of Israel, known for its leadership qualities and its central role in the history of the Israelites. The directive for Judah to "go up" indicates a divine appointment and a call to action, emphasizing the tribe's responsibility to lead the charge in fulfilling God's promise to Israel. Indeed, I have delivered the land into his hands Judah shall go up.--The phrase "go up" is used in a military sense (Joshua 6:5). The question had not been, "Who shall be our leader?" but, "Which tribe shall fight first?" The reason why Judah is chosen is from the eminence and power of the tribe, which was also the most numerous at both of the censuses taken in the wilderness (Numbers 1:26; Numbers 26:19-22). Jacob's blessing on the tribe had been, "Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies" (Genesis 49:8). (Comp. Numbers 34:19; Joshua 15:1.) In the arrangement of the camp, Judah was stationed at the east, with Issachar and Zebulon, and always started first on the march (Numbers 2:3-9), with its lion-standard, which was a symbol of its lion-courage (Genesis 49:9; Revelation 5:5).
