Here we have a picture of a man who is carrying the seed which will be the Christ. He is Judah. He is a whore monger though. He being a brother of Joseph, would have Joseph killed along with his other brothers help. God sends Pharoah's men just in time to bring Joseph to Egypt as a slave. This would preserve Israel from destruction by famine in the future. Joseph would become a great leader.
God caused the right woman to carry Judah's seed instead of just any woman. She bare a son who would be the geneological generation that leads to Joseph and Mary. We see that God has well planned everything to go according to his will. The same goes for all his people.
Spiritually speaking, Israel is considered a unfaithful woman who Jesus came forth from. Though they rejected him as Messiah he is going to come one day and show mercy and convince her he is the Messiah they are looking for.
