Numbers 3:43, Berean Standard Bible

Explanation preview

This verse reports the result of the census God commanded Moses in verse 40: every firstborn Israelite male a month old or more was counted and listed by name. The number matters because God had claimed all firstborn in Israel as his own on the night he struck down Egypt's firstborn (verses 12 to 13).
