Chapter 26
1
And it came to pass after the plague,
that
Jehovah/God spoke unto Moses
and
unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, saying, 2
"Take
the sum of all the congregation of the children of Israel,
from
twenty years old and upward,
throughout
their fathers' house,
all
who are able to go to war in Israel."
3
And Moses and Eleazar the priest
spoke
with them in the plains of Moab
by
Jordan {the Jordan River} near Jericho, saying, 4
"Take
the sum of the people,
from
twenty years old and upward;
as
Jehovah/God commanded Moses and the children of Israel,
which
went forth out of the land of Egypt."
{Note:
The following is VERY IMPORTANT for the Jews and for us to
understand books like Ruth. This was the land promised to the
children of Israel by Families. If a family did not have a male
child, they would lose their inheritance. They could sell their land,
but every 50 years, the land reverted back to the original family (as
long as there was a male child. To keep the 'law of posterity'
active, a relative could take the widowed wife, impregnate her, and
she could raise that child with her dead husband's name - and family
right of inheritance.}
