Commentary on Numbers 7:12

Nahshon, prince of Judah, offering on the first day establishes Judah's prominence among the tribes. This foreshadows Judah's role as the royal tribe from which David and ultimately Christ would come. His offering sets the pattern that all other princes will follow, making his leadership representative. The Reformed understanding of covenant headship is reflected—one leader represents and patterns behavior for those who follow. Christ, the Lion of Judah, ultimately fulfills this typology as the true Leader whose offering saves His people.
