BIBLE VERSES

JUDAH, THE TRIBE OF

A symbol of qualities in which is the spirit of insight and understanding of spiritual verities.

“For it is evident that our Lord hath sprung out of Judah; as to which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priests.” — Heb. vii. 14.

“Jesus” is here taken as a symbol of the regenerate soul which stands for the Christ manifest in the “flesh” or lower nature. The Christ-soul is beyond the Law of the old dispensation, as Love is superior to Rule and obedience (Levi). “Judah” signifies the spirit of insight and understanding of the things of the higher life, and out of this the Christ-soul comes.
