Revelation 5:5 (ESV) “And one of the elders said to me, "Weep no more; behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has conquered, so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals.”
John’s weeping is interrupted by one of the elders who informs him that one has been found who is worthy! He is the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, the Root of David, who has overcome. The “Lion of the Tribe of Judah” is an expression which occurs here only in the Bible. It an expression which points to the royalty and power of Jesus Christ, the true King of Israel. We are prepared for a majestic scene of power as we look to see the Lion of Judah.
