Numbers 2:34 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 2:34

And the children of Israel did according to all that the Lord
commanded Moses
Formed themselves into camps, so many tribes to a camp, and over each tribe or host appointed a captain, and erected a standard to each camp, by which they pitched as directed, which is next particularly observed:

so they pitched by their standards;
every tribe, and every person in the tribe, as they were ranked, pitched by the standard to which they belonged:

and so they set forward, after their families according to the house
of their fathers;
the camps, and the tribes in them the families in those tribes, and the houses or lesser families under them, when they marched, proceeded in this regular order, as they did on the twentieth of this month; see ( Numbers 10:11 Numbers 10:12 ) .
