How do we know Jesus is the fulfillment of the prophecy about Judah?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus fulfills the prophecy as He is a descendant of Judah and embodies the promised ruler 'Shiloh' who gathers God’s people.

The prophecy in Genesis 49:10 states that 'the scepter shall not depart from Judah until Shiloh comes.' This title 'Shiloh' is widely understood as referring to the Messiah, identified in the New Testament with Jesus Christ, who comes from the tribe of Judah. His lineage is emphasized in the genealogies of Matthew 1 and Luke 3, clearly connecting Him to Judah. Thus, through His birth and subsequent ministry, Jesus is recognized as the fulfillment of this promise.
