Book Four: Numbers.

(Numbers 1:1) “And the LORD spake unto Mo’-ses in the wilderness of Si’-nai, in the tabernacle of the congregation, on the first day of the second month, in the second year after they were come out of the land of E’-gypt, saying, Take ye the sum of all the congregation of the children of Is’-ra-el, after their families, by the house of their fathers with the number of their names, every male by their polls; From twenty years old and upward, all that are able to go forth to war in Is’-ra-el: thou and Aa’-ron shall number them by their armies.”

(Numbers 3:11) “And the LORD spake unto Mo’-ses, saying, And I, behold, I have taken the Le’-vites from among the children of Is’-ra-el instead of all the firstborn that openeth the matrix among the children of Is’-ra-el: therefore the Le’-vites shall be mine; Because all the firstborn are mine; for on the day that I smote all the firstborn in the land of E’-gypt I hallowed unto me all the firstborn in Is’-ra-el, both man and beast: mine shall they be: I am the LORD.”

(Numbers 5:1) “And the LORD spake unto Mo’-ses, saying, Command the children of Is’-ra-el, that they put out of the camp every leper, and every one that hath an issue, and whosoever is defiled by the dead: Both male and female shall ye put out, without the camp shall ye put them; that they defile not their camps, in the midst whereof I dwell.”

(Numbers 7:6) “And Mo’-ses took the wagons and the oxen, and gave them unto the Le’-vites. Two wagons and four oxen he gave unto the sons of Ger’-shon, according to their service: And four wagons and eight oxen he gave unto the sons of Me-ra’-ri, according unto their service, under the hand of Ith’-a-mar the son of Aa’-ron the priest. But unto the sons of Ko’-hath he gave none: because the service of the sanctuary belonging unto them was that they should bear upon their shoulders.”

(Numbers 7:89) “And when Mo’-ses was gone into the tabernacle of the congregation to speak with him, then he heard the voice of one speaking unto him from off the mercy seat that was upon the ark of testimony, from between the two cher’-u-bims: and he spake unto him.”

(Numbers 11:31) “And there went forth a wind from the LORD, and brought quails from the sea, and let them fall by the camp, as it were a day’s journey on this side, and as it were a day’s journey on the other side, round about the camp, as it were two cubits high upon the face of the earth. And the people stood up all that day, and all that night, and all the next day, and they gathered the quails: he that gathered least gathered ten ho’-mers: and they spread them all abroad for themselves round about the camp. And while the flesh was yet between their teeth, ere it was chewed, the wrath of the LORD was kindled against the people, and the LORD smote the people with a very great plague.

(Numbers 14:29) “Your carcases shall fall in this wilderness: and all that were numbered of you, according to your whole number, from twenty years old and upward which have murmured against me. Doubtless ye shall not come into the land, concerning which I sware to make you dwell therein, save Ca’-leb the son of Je-phun’-neh, and Josh’-u-a the son of Nun. But your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, them will I bring in, and they shall know the land which ye have despised. But as for you, your carcases, they shall fall in this wilderness. And your children shall wander in the wilderness forty years, and bear your whoredoms, until your carcases be wasted in the wilderness.”

(Numbers 16:15) “And Mo’-ses was very wroth, and said unto the LORD, Respect not thou their offering: I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I hurt one of them.”

(Numbers 18:14) “Every thing devoted in Is’-ra-el shall be thine. Every thing that openeth the matrix in all flesh, which they bring unto the LORD, whether it be of men or beasts, shall be thine: nevertheless the firstborn of man shalt thou surely redeem, and the firstling of unclean beasts shalt thou redeem. And those that are to be redeemed from a month old shalt thou redeem, according to thine estimation, for the money of five she’-kels, after the she’-kel of the sanctuary, which is twenty ge’-rahs. But the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, thou shalt not redeem; they are holy: thou shalt sprinkle their blood upon the altar, and shalt burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a sweet savour unto the LORD.”

(Numbers 20:10) “And Mo’-ses and Aa’-ron gathered the congregation together before the rock, and he said unto them, Hear now, ye rebels; must we fetch you water out of this rock? And Mo’-ses lifted up his hand, and with his rod he smote the rock twice: and the water came out abundantly, and the congregation drank, and their beasts also.”

(Numbers 22:28) “And the LORD opened the mouth of the ass, and she said unto Ba’-laam, What have I done unto thee, that thou hast smitten me these three times? And Ba’-laam said unto the ass, Because thou hast mocked me: I would there were a sword in mine hand, for now would I kill thee. And the ass said unto Ba’-laam, Am not I thine ass, upon which thou hast ridden ever since I was thine unto this day? was I ever wont to do so unto thee? And he said, Nay.”

(Numbers 25:10) “And the LORD spake unto Mo’-ses, saying, Phin’-e-has, the son of El-e-a’-zar, the son of Aa’-ron the priest, hath turned my wrath away from the children of Is’-ra-el, while he was zealous for my sake among them, that I consumed not the children of Is’-ra-el in my jealousy.”

(Numbers 29:1) “And in the seventh month, on the first day of the month, ye shall have an holy convocation; ye shall do no servile work: it is a day of blowing the trumpets unto you.”

(Numbers 31:17) “Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him. But all the women children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves. And do ye abide without the camp seven days: whosoever hath killed any person, and whosoever hath touched any slain, purify both yourselves and your captives on the third day, and on the seventh day. And purify all your raiment, and all that is made of skins, and all work of goats’ hair, and all things made of wood.”

(Numbers 35:1) “And the LORD spake unto Mo’-ses in the plains of Mo’-ab by Jor’-dan near Jer’-i’cho, saying, Command the children of Is’-ra-el, that they give unto the Le’-vites of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell in; and ye shall give also unto the Le’-vites suburbs fore the cities round about them. And the cities shall they have to dwell in; and the suburbs of them shall be for their cattle, and for their goods, and for all their beasts.”
