This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Num_2:3 And on the east side toward the rising of the sun shall they of the standard of the camp of Judah pitch throughout their armies: and Nahshon the son of Amminadab [shall be] captain of the children of Judah.
Ver. 3. And on the east side.] Judah encamped foremost. It was fit the lion should lead the way. Better an army of harts, with a lion to lead them on, &c. This order in their march showed the principality that should continue in this tribe till Shiloh came. Judah herein also was a type of Christ, who is "the Captain of the Lord’s host," {Jos_5:14} and "of our salvation," {Heb_2:10} and goeth before his heavenly armies. {Rev_12:7}
