1 After the plague had ended, the LORD {YHWH} said to Moses (drawn out) and Eleazar (God has helped) son of Aaron (light bringer) the priest, 2 “Take a census of the whole congregation of Israel (he wrestles with God) by the houses of their fathers—all those twenty years of age or older who can serve in the army of Israel.” 3 So on the plains of Moab (of his father) by the Jordan (flowing down), across from Jericho (city of palms), Moses (drawn out) and Eleazar (God has helped) the priest issued the instruction, 4 “Take a census of the men twenty years of age or older, as the LORD {YHWH} has commanded Moses (drawn out).” And these were the Israelites (God prevails) who came out of the land of Egypt (land of bondage): Numbers 26:1-4, Berean Annotated Bible.
