📚 Contexto Histórico
During King David's reign over Israel, he ordered a census to count the fighting men, which was a common practice in ancient times to assess military strength but was seen as an act of pride and mistrust in God. This event occurred toward the end of David's rule, as a consequence of God allowing Satan to incite him, leading to divine displeasure and eventual punishment. Joab, as David's military commander, carried out the census reluctantly and reported the totals, including 800,000 valiant men from Israel and 500,000 from Judah.
