The tribes-are not mentioned regularly, according to the priority of birthright; but perhaps Moses was directed by the HOLY GHOST. I would have the Reader take particular notice of the title of Benjamin, the beloved of the LORD. Benjamin was the beloved Son of his Father Jacob. But the beloved of the LORD infinitely surpasseth the highest love of men. Doth not the Reader behold in this, somewhat typical of him, who is the only begotten and beloved SON, who lay in the bosom of the FATHER before all worlds? Compare Isaiah 42:1 with Matthew 3:17.
