Tribe of Judah

From Wikiquote, the free quote compendium
Symbol of the Tribe of Judah

According to the Hebrew Bïble, the tribe of Judah was one of the twelve Tribes of Israel, named after Judah, the son of Jacob. Judah was one of the tribes to take its place in Judea, occupying its southern part. Jesse and his sons, including King David, belonged to this tribe. The genealogies given in Matthew 1:1–6 and Luke 3:23–34 in the New Testament describe Jesus as a Descendant of David, Matthew through Solomon and Luke through Nathan (Matthew 1:1–6; Luke 3:23–31).
