Christendom as a Flavian conspiracy

Judah wasn't the ruling tribe in Jacob's day. My reading of Genesis is that
none of them were. They weren't even tribes - just an extended family of
Semite Hebrews, probably a part of the great Semitic invasion of Egypt
under the Hyksos period.

Saying these things were written when there WERE tribes smacks of
wanting to "explain away" Jacob - except that Jacob hinted of a time
when there would be no more Israel. Like other writers did.

Forget the Hyksos for now.. they'll just confuse everything.

Gen. 48-50

”- Jacob pronounces the blessing upon Judah, and his blessing supersedes even that of Joseph, for he says that his ‘father’s sons shall bow down to you,’ and then he goes on to say that ‘the scepter shall not depart from Judah until Shiloh comes’ 9.1.

Not sure what you are saying.
