Jesus was from the tribe of Judah. Judah was the fourth son of Jacob (Israel). Upon the death of Israel, Judah was given the following prophecy: ''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'' (Genesis 49:10).
