Even the failings and sinful acts of fallen men and women cannot thwart the purposes of the Lord to redeem all of Creation.
In the end Judah and his brothers and their families were very blessed to live out their lives in relative peace and prosperity in the Land of Goshen in Egypt. It was only several generations later that that entire nation fell into slavery in Egypt. Because there are two primary reasons for that situation. First, the people of Israel abandoned their faith in God and became corrupted by the sinful idolatries of the Egyptians. Second, there arose a Pharaoh who knew not Joseph, There arose a generation of Egyptians who had no memory of the great work that Joseph had accomplished on behalf of Egypt.

Then, in an ultimate expression of compassion, Judah offered to substitute himself in place of Benjamin! Seeing the change in Judah, Joseph was able to bless them as God intended. It appears that Joseph finally saw that his brothers could be trusted. Why is he blessed while his brothers are cursed? We understand that, as with all the sons of Jacob, the blessing will not be experienced by Judah himself, but by the tribe that bears his name.
Judah will die like his brothers, but his tribe will go on to lead Israel in military victories as Scripture records in Numbers 2, 10, Judges 1, 2, and elsewhere. But again we are brought back to our first question: the tribes of Reuben, Simeon and Levi are cursed because of the actions of their Patriarch, so why is the tribe of Judah blessed when their Patriarch is just as sinful? When we look deeper into this blessing, we see whom is really the object of the blessing: the lion of the tribe of Judah — the Messiah.
Traditionally, both Jewish and Christian scholars understand these verses to be a prophecy of the coming Messiah.
