And those that were numbered of them were twenty and three thousand, all males from a month old and upward: for they were not numbered among the children of Israel, because there was no inheritance given them among the children of Israel.
El número contado entre ellos fue veintitrés mil, todos varones de un mes de edad en adelante. No fueron contados con el resto de los israelitas porque no se les dio ninguna herencia de tierra entre el pueblo de Israel.
Los levitas fueron contados por separado porque no recibieron herencia de tierra como las demás tribus de Israel.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Numbers, Moses conducted a second census of the Israelites as they approached the end of their 40-year wilderness journey, preparing to enter the Promised Land. This verse specifically counts the Levites, who were descendants of Levi and dedicated to serving in the Tabernacle, and explains why they were not included in the general tribal count: they had no land inheritance because God Himself was their portion. Their unique role emphasized their responsibility as mediators between God and the people, highlighting the importance of priestly service in ancient Israelite society.
