from Judah
The tribe of Judah holds significant prominence throughout the Bible. The Hebrew root for "Judah" is "Yehudah," which means "praise." Judah was the fourth son of Jacob and Leah, and his descendants became one of the most powerful and influential tribes of Israel. Historically, Judah is known for its leadership and strength, as it was the tribe from which King David and ultimately Jesus Christ descended. This lineage underscores the fulfillment of God's promises and the messianic prophecy, highlighting the importance of praise and leadership in God's plan.

Nahshon
Nahshon, whose name means "enchanter" or "oracle," is a figure of leadership and faith. As the son of Amminadab, Nahshon was appointed as the leader of the tribe of Judah during the wilderness journey. His role is significant as he is listed in the genealogy of Jesus in the New Testament (Matthew 1:4). Nahshon's leadership during the Exodus represents a model of faith and courage, as he is traditionally believed to have been the first to step into the Red Sea before it parted, demonstrating trust in God's deliverance.

son of Amminadab
Amminadab, meaning "my kinsman is noble" or "people of the prince," is a name that reflects nobility and leadership. As the father of Nahshon, Amminadab is part of the lineage that connects the tribe of Judah to the royal line of David. This connection emphasizes the theme of divine election and the continuity of God's covenant with His people. The mention of Amminadab in this context serves as a reminder of the heritage and responsibility carried by the leaders of Israel, pointing to the ultimate fulfillment of God's promises through Jesus Christ, the noble King and Savior.

Verse 7. - Nahshon - the brother-in-law of Aaron (Exodus 6:23), and ancestor of David and of Jesus Christ (Matthew 1:4).
