THE FIRST PROPHECY UPDATE (321) IS THE FIRST ONE YOU WILL SEE.

In Scripture Jesus was at times referred to as the Son of man, the Son of God, and the Son of David on multiple occasions.  David appears in both the genealogies of Joseph and Mary in Matthew and Luke through two of his sons, and is in the line of the kings that are be the forefathers of the King of Kings, the God-man in whom all the fullness of the God-head dwells bodily.  King David performed what Numbers 24:17 prophesied during the Exodus.

 David fulfilled this first part of Balaam’s prophecy around 1000 BC.

 Jesus will fulfill all of it completely as Emmanuel, the Son of God, the Son of Man, and the Son of David.  Jesus fulfils it as the Lion of Judah.  The King of Kings will come at his 2nd Advent and do the same as David, but on a much larger scale all the way to the Euphrates River in the Land Grant He gave to Abraham.

Numbers 24:17 – I shall see him, but not now: I shall behold him, but not nigh: there shall come a Star out of Jacob, and a Sceptre shall rise out of Israel, and shall smite the corners of Moab, and destroy all the children of Sheth.

Matthew 2:1,2 – Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, [2] Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.  

Hebrews 1:8 – But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

Now, with the sceptre of Numbers and Hebrews in mind, let us look at Genesis 49:10, which the man Israel uttered about coming prophetic events as they related to his 12 sons, in point the one relating to his son Judah, from whose seed Messiah, known as the Lion of Judah, was to come.

Genesis 49:10 – The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and UNTO HIM shall THE GATHERING of the people be.

The sceptre was a symbol of divine authority to rule. Most of the ancient kings possessed a sceptre. It was a rod or staff, usually long enough to rest on the floor between the ruler’s legs when he was on his thr

one. It was also a mark of succession that was passed from father to son when the old king expired.

And, as such, was a mark of the royal line of kings in a dynasty. The sceptre of a king was the “law of the land,” and as ruler, his sceptre w

as looked upon as authority to administer it.

The “law of the Medes and the Persians” was given with the authority of the sceptre as a “lawgiver.”

The tribe of Judah was the tribe to which the right to lead the other 11 descendant tribes was given. It was the tribe of Judah that received the blessing of Jacob to rule and lead the tribes.

Genesis 49:8 – Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies; thy father’s children shall bow down before thee.

Jacob indicated that Judah’s tribe, and the right to pass judgment by the sceptre between the legs of their ruler, would remain with them and their leaders, until a leader in Judah’s line came to hold the position forever. And that this leader, symbolically referred to as Shiloh, would bring tranquility and peace of soul to those who gathered to him by his future assurance of one day GATHERING THEM into his eternal kingdom.

John 3:14,15 – And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: [15] That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

John 12:32 – And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will DRAW ALL MEN UNTO ME.

Ephesians 1:6-10 – To the praise of the glory of his grace, wherein he hath made us accepted in the beloved. [7] In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; [8] Wherein he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence; [9] Having made known unto us the mystery of his will, according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself: [10] That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might GATHER TOGETHER in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven, and which are on earth; even IN HIM:

Genesis 49:10 – The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and UNTO HIM shall THE GATHERING of the people be.

Of “Shiloh” Strong’s Exhaustive Concordance says, “It is a symbolic name for the ruler of Judah,” and in his Dictionary of New Testament Words he states; “It is an epithet of the Messiah.” The basic meaning of the word itself is “tranquil,” as one would associate with a genuine feeling of peace brought on by faith it would continue. It comes from another Hebrew root, “salah,” which means, “to be secure, be happy, be in safety.”

When Jesus came as Shiloh, he took up eternally the sceptre of the tribe of Judah, as his direct descendant in the line of David, through two of David’s sons, Solomon to Joseph, who was the son-in-law of Heli, and Nathan to Heli,

who was the father of Mary. As Shiloh, Jesus was the one in the line that will rule forever by his scepter, which is the lawgiver that allows him to be the judge of all who are gathered to him.

Micah indicates he was sent to be both the judge and the ruler of Israel.

Micah 5:1,2 – Now gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops: he hath laid siege against us: they shall smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek. [2] But thou Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
