Deepertruth: Lion of Judah, symbol of strength, nobility, and bravery

Lion of Judah, symbol of strength, nobility, and bravery.  

Jesus Christ that emphasizes his role as king and the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies. The title is based on the blessing Jacob gave to his fourth son, Judah, in the Book of Genesis, where Jacob describes Judah as a "lion's cub". In Revelation, the Lion of Judah is said to have triumphed and is worthy to open the scroll and its seven seals. 

 the lion is the symbol of the house of Judah, and Jesus is a descendant of the house of Judah. Jesus also understood that he would be a king, and therefore the symbol would make sense as it stood for Judah himself as a king.

One of the elders said to me, “Do not weep. The lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David,* has triumphed, enabling him to open the scroll with its seven seals.

Revelation, tells about the end of history and the second coming of Christ. In Revelation 5:5, we read this about Jesus: “Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah has conquered.” Jesus is the Lion of Judah.

When the divine Lion roars, the people need to shake off their complacency because His roar means He is about to spring into action! He means what He says about living His way of life, and He follows through when we depart from it.

The Christ-lion, the Lion of Judah, is a beacon of light, courage, bravery, agility and dignity. And he is a fighter, symbolic of the line of David and of Kings. Jesus descended from the tribe of Judah and is mentioned as being the Lion of Judah in Revelation. The role of the Lion of Judah links to the destiny of man.

s Jesus from the tribe of Judah? Yes, Jesus is a descendant of Judah through David, a king who also came from the tribe of Judah. David is a descendant of Judah's son Perez, whom he had with Tamar.
