What does Numbers 2:12 mean?
John Gill's Exposition of the Bible
Numbers 2:12
And those which pitch by him [shall be] the tribe of
Simeon,
&c.] Under his standard, and on one side of it; Reuben and
Simeon being brothers by the mother as well as the father's side,
might well be thought to agree together; and Reuben being the
eldest brother, and the eldest of all Jacob's sons, Simeon would
not grudge to pitch under him:
and the captain of the children of Simeon [shall be]
Shelumiel the son
of Zurishaddai;
of whom see ( Numbers 1:6 ) (
7:36 )
