Numbers 7:12 ESV
"He who offered his offering the first day was Nahshon the son of Aminadab, of the tribe of Judah."
I find it very interesting that the person who offered the offering on the very first day is a direct descendant of Jesus Christ. According to Ruth 4 and Matthew 1, Nahshon was David's great, great, great, grandfather. Nahshon was doing partially only what his descendant could complete. Nahson's sacrifice only was a covering of sin; his descendant Christ's sacrifice was perfect in cleansing sin. Very interesting indeed.

Everything about Jesus and his direct descendants are always interesting. It makes it more accurate that Jesus really did exist (a point proven to those who don't believe in Him)
