The census total and the division of land

Num 26:51–56

51The total of all those tribes counted came to 601,730 men.[fn]

52Then Yahweh told Mosheh,[ref] 53“The land should be allocated to those clans according to the number of their names, to become their inheritance. 54Those with larger numbers should receive more, and the smaller groups receive less, i.e., each inheritance depends on the number of family members. 55You must throw lots to determine which clan gets which piece of land. The lands of the clans must be within their tribal lands. 56Then the size of the area that will become their inheritance must be apportioned according to the census numbers.


26:51 Slightly smaller than the total of 603,550 from the first census, see 1:46.
