Line of Judah:
The Jewish patriarch Judah and his descendants make up the line of Judah. In fact, the term Jew itself is derived from this patriarch's name. Famous individuals born into this line include King David, all of the subsequent kings of the House of David, and Jesus Christ.
Lion of Judah:
The lion is a symbol of the line of Judah: "Judah is a young lion" (Genesis 49:9). Incidentally, the lion is the government symbol for the modern day city of Jerusalem. Evidence from the Ethiopian Jewish tradition suggests that the title "Lion of the tribe of Judah" was used to refer to kings of the House of David. In Christianity, Jesus Christ is seen as one of those kings and is referred to as "the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David" (Revelation 5:5).
