Numbers
Chapter
Numbers is a continuation of Exodus, recording the stay of the Israelites in the wilderness of Sinai until their arrival in Moab. The title of the book is derived from the two numberings of the people recorded here.
Numbers 1
1:53 But the Levites shall pitch round about the tabernacle of testimony, that there be no wrath upon the congregation of the children of Israel: and the Levites shall keep the charge of the tabernacle of testimony.
