This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
14 For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
Ver. 14. Nothing concerning priesthood] For when Reuben, by defiling Bilhah, lost his birthright, the birthright was given to Joseph, the kingdom to Judah, and the priesthood to Levi. But God translated the priesthood, and settled it upon his Son Christ, who sprang out of Judah, in a time when it was commonly bought and sold to the vilest of men, and all was out of order.
