What does the Bible say about the prophecy of Shiloh in Genesis?

Answered in 1 source

Genesis 49:10 proclaims that Shiloh, referring to the Messiah, would come from Judah, indicating the royal lineage leading to Christ.

In Genesis 49:10, Jacob prophesies about Shiloh, which means 'the sent one' or 'peace.' This prophecy signifies that the scepter, symbolizing authority and kingship, will remain with the tribe of Judah until the coming of the Messiah. This underscores the importance of Judah in the lineage that ultimately leads to Jesus Christ, the ultimate fulfillment of this prophecy, as He is the King through whom the people of God will be gathered and ruled. Jacob's prophecy emphasizes the sovereignty of God and the unfolding plan of redemption, forecasting not only the coming of a ruler from Judah but also the peace and rest that would accompany His reign.
