"Who has the birthright and sceptre out of Jacob's sons from his two wives: Joseph and Judah - From Rachel and Leah"
Joseph is firstborn of Jacob and Rachel, the woman he truly loved and had to wait 14 years to marry, because Laban, the girls father's rule was the older had to be married before the younger. Leah being the holder bore Jacob 6 children:
1. Ruben (who slept with Bilha, handmaiden of Leah, lost his birthright and Bilha was banned from the camp)
2. Simeon, Leah
3. Levi, Leah
4. Judah, Leah (Leah becomes temporary barren)
5. Dan, of Bilha
6. Naphtali, Bilha
7. Gad, Zilpha Rachael's Handmaiden
8. Asher, Zilpha
9. Issacar, Leah
10.Zebulon, Leah, 14 years is up Rachael becomes Jacob's wife
11.Joseph is Rachel and Jacob's first born, receives the firstborn birthright, Joseph's firstborn Mannasseh, receives Ruben's firstborn right...
THEREFORE THE BIRTHRIGHT REMAINS WITH JOSEPH/MANNASSEH WHICH IS THE LAND OF THE U.S.A./CANADA --HOUSE OF ISRAEL
12. Benjamin, remains with tribe of Judah in Jerusalem, both very small tribes.
The Scepter (lawgiver) will always remain with Judah...for it was through Judah/Tamar, the twin of Zarah, PHEREZ bore Jesus Christ, the King...so the Scepter remains with Judah...
Read Genesis 49...to see what Judah looks like today, and Joseph!
