1 | Why was Judah the chosen tribe? | Gen 49:10 | DocTrinsograce | 189601 | ||
Dear Searcher, If we are to believe that Judah was chosen based on his being more deserving than the others, would we have to say that Jacob was chosen on greater merit than Esau, and Isaac greater merit than Ishmael, and Abraham greater merit than Lot? Going the other direction chronologically, did Tamar have greater merit than others, or did she just win the prize because she was the last to pass down the line? There are others of whom we could speak regarding less than meritorious lives, but I think you get the point. So my question is this: Where in Scripture do we find God's choosing of any individual based on merit? If I have misunderstood what you were saying, I apologize in advance, and look forward to correction. In Him, Doc |

Hi, Doc - You ask, "Where in Scripture do we find God's choosing of any individual based on merit?" The Book of Hezekiah, perhaps; or maybe 2 Barnacles? :-) ....... Thanks be to God that He does not choose us, not any of us, on the basis of our merit! --Hank | ||||||
