Ezra 2:66 Meaning and Commentary

Ver. 66,67 Their horses were seven hundred thirty and six,
their mules two hundred forty and five, their camels four hundred
thirty and five, [their] asses six thousand seven hundred and
twenty.
] So that the far greatest part of them must walk on foot, since these can be thought to be little more than sufficient to carry their goods or baggage; some copies of the Vulgate Latin read six hundred and thirty six horses ^F3.
