Best Answer
A:The gospels say that Jesus was descended from King David, which would certainly mean that he would be from the tribe of Judah. However, there are discrepancies in the genealogies described in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, which could make the ancestry of Jesus less certain.

The Jews of Galilee were originally pagans who were forcibly converted to Judaism by the Maccabeans during the second century BCE. Since Luke portrays Joseph and Mary as Galileans, this would make it likely that Jesus was not descended from the tribe of Judah. On the other hand, Matthew portrays Joseph and Mary as natives of Bethlehem, which means Jesus was probably from the tribe of Judah.

Which of the 12 tribes did Christ belong to?

Judah was to be the kingly tribe, this being narrowed down later to the family of David. It is, therefore, fitting that Jesus Christ bears the title "the Lion that is of the tribe of Judah." (Revelation 5:5) And both Joseph and Mary belong to the tribe of Judah and are descendants of King David. So the heirship rights of Jesus will be doubly established. (Matthew 1:2-16; Luke 3:23-33)
