I must not suffer the Reader to go through this account of the order, in which Israel took their journeys, without detaining him to observe, that Judah takes the lead. Doth the Reader ask wherefore? Let him recollect that our LORD sprang out of Judah. The sceptre was to be in Judah, and to him the gathering of the people. Hence our LORD is emphatically called the Lion of the tribe of Judah. LORD JESUS! do thou go before me, and may thy HOLY SPIRIT grant me power to follow thee. See those scriptures, Genesis 49:8-10; Hebrews 7:14; Revelation 5:1-10.
