Numbers

Numbers follows Israel through the wilderness from Sinai toward Canaan.

Numbers chapter 1

1The LORD spoke to Moses in the wilderness of Sinai, in the Tent of Meeting, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they had come out of the land of Egypt, saying,

2“Take a census of all the congregation of the children of Israel, by their families, by their fathers’ houses, according to the number of the names, every male, one by one,

3from twenty years old and upward, all who are able to go out to war in Israel. You and Aaron shall count them by their divisions.
