The word thingy!  grin  the word "rod" has my attention  :what: so...

Strong's H7626 - shebet

1) rod, staff, branch, offshoot, club, sceptre, tribe

a.) rod, staff

b.) shaft (of spear, dart)

c.) club (of shepherd's implement)

d.) truncheon, sceptre (mark of authority)

e.) clan, tribe

AV — tribe 140, rod 34, sceptre 10, staff 2, misc 4

Gen 49:10     The sceptre (7626)  shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come ; and unto him [shall] the gathering of the people [be].

Gen 49:16     Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes (7626) of Israel.

This is a prophecy of the promise the Lord will fulfill with Dan, the tribes have specific places promised to them in the kingdom of God.  This is why we who are grafted into "THEIR PROMISE"  will be kings and priest.   Fulfilling the offices the Lord desires for his government here on earth starting in the Millennium.  Rev 20:4-6.   

There are judges that will be established upon the earth,  as I Cor 6:2 says know ye not that ye will judge angels?  The angels who are the Lord's will be judged by us, what an impacting statement  when thought about.

Angels can sin, and sin did not start with man, but in the creations of Angels first, because Satan sinned before Man sinned, what is your thoughts on this?  And if angels can sin..where they not made before the humans?    food for thought... grin

the father said he was sending the tribulation through the seed of Ishmael  and they are camped around us now.  Trust the Lord in the times of trouble that is near to all of us.   The Lord is coming.
