To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
That it should rule over all Israel ; 4. That its sovereignty should be monarchical ; 5. That Shiloh should arise out of it as a lawgiver ; 6. That the gathering of the people should be to him ; 7. That he should ride an ass accompanied by its foal ; 8. That his garments should be dyed with the blood of his enemies ; and, 9. That the fountains and rocks of the country should exuberate with grapes and pasture. Such are the points into which the members of Jacob's beau- tiful prophecy concerning ...the things of the Kingdom, in connec- tion with Judah as the royal tribe, are resolvable when converted into literal, or unfigurative, speech. But, it is very clear from the past history of the tribe, that the prophecy is only partially accomplished. Judah is now " stooping down, and couching as an old lion " ; and in view of his present prostration, Jacob inquired, " Who shall rouse him up?" Yes; who shall doit? Who shall start him to his feet again, that he may rend and tread down, and devour the enemies of Jerusalem ?
