Which tribe had the honour to go foremost and lead the van, the chief ruler, the Messiah being to come of it, as he did; who is King of Israel, and has gone forth at the head of them, fighting their battles for them:

according to their armies:
having, besides the army of the tribe of Judah, the armies of the tribes of Issachar and Zebulun under his standard:

and over his host [was] Nahshon the son of Amminadab;
he was captain general of the army of the tribe of Judah, as Nethaneel was over the host of the tribe of Issachar, ( Numbers 10:15 ) ; and Eliab over the host of the tribe of Zebulun, ( Numbers 10:16 ) ; the same commanders as were fixed at the time of settling the order of their encampment, ( Numbers 2:3 Numbers 2:5 Numbers 2:7 ) .
