Contextual Overview
5 These are the people from the tribe of Reuben. (Reuben was the firstborn son of Israel.) The family groups were Hanoch—the Hanochite family group; Pallu—the Palluite family group; 6 Hezron—the Hezronite family group; Carmi—the Carmite family group. 7 The total number of men in these family groups from the tribe of Reuben was 43,730. 8 Pallu's son was Eliab. 9 Eliab had three sons—Nemuel, Dathan, and Abiram. Remember, Dathan and Abiram were the two leaders who turned against Moses and Aaron. They followed Korah when Korah turned against the Lord . 10 That was the time when the earth opened and swallowed Korah and all of his followers. And 250 men died! That was a warning to all the Israelites. 11 But the other people who were from the family of Korah did not die. 12 These are the family groups from the tribe of Simeon: Nemuel—the Nemuelite family group; Jamin—the Jaminite family group; Jakin—the Jakinite family group; 13 Zerah—the Zerahite family group; Shaul—the Shaulite family group. 14 The total number of men in these family groups from the tribe of Simeon was 22,200.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Ver. 28-34. The sons of Joseph, after their families, were Manasseh and Ephraim. Manasseh is here mentioned first, though Ephraim was preferred to him by Jacob, and the standard belonged to him; not because he was the firstborn, but because he had now the greater increase, though he had but one son, Machir, of whom was the family of the Machirites, and a grandson, whose name was Gilead, from whom was the family of the Gileadites, and who had six sons; of whom were the families of the Jeezerite, Halekite, Asrielite, Shechemite, Shemidaite, and Hepherite. Hepher, of whom was the last, had a son named Zelophehad, but he had no son, only five daughters, whose names are given; the number of men in this tribe, of twenty years old and upwards, fit for war, was 52,700, so that the increase was 20,500, a large increase indeed!
