The total number of the men of Israel was 601,730.

52The Lord said to Moses, 53“The land is to be allotted to them as an inheritance based on the number of names.

These are the ones counted by Moses and Eleazar the priest when they counted the Israelites on the plains of Moab by the Jordan across from Jericho. 64Not one of them was among those counted by Moses and Aaron the priest when they counted the Israelites in the Desert of Sinai. 65For the Lord had told those Israelites they would surely die in the wilderness, and not one of them was left except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.

So Moses brought their case before the Lord, 6and the Lord said to him, 7“What Zelophehad’s daughters are saying is right. You must certainly give them property as an inheritance among their father’s relatives and give their father’s inheritance to them.

Lord God my Father,

You know the number of the grains of sand, you are all knowing and you have an order in all things. Help me to know your order and apply it to my life. Help me to bring reason to my questions so they may be pleasing to you.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
