7And the five men go, and come to Laish, and see the people which [is] in its midst, dwelling confidently, according to the custom of Zidonians, quiet and confident; and there is none putting to shame in the land in [any] thing, possessing restraint, and they [are] far off from the Zidonians, and have no word with [any] man. 8And they come to their brothers at Zorah and Eshtaol, and their brothers say to them, "What [did] you [find]?" 9And they say, "Rise, and we go up against them, for we have seen the land, and behold—very good; and you are keeping silent! Do not be slothful to go—to enter to possess the land. 10When you go, you come to a confident people, and the land [is] large on both hands, for God has given it into your hand, a place where there is no lack of anything which [is] in the land." 11And there journey there, of the family of the Danite, from Zorah, and from Eshtaol, six hundred men girded with weapons of war.12And they go up and encamp in Kirjath-Jearim, in Judah, therefore they have called that place, "Camp of Dan," until this day; behold, behind Kirjath-Jearim. 13And they pass over there [to] the hill-country of Ephraim, and come to the house of Micah.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And there went from thence of the family of the Danites,.... Or families, the singular being put for the plural; for it can hardly be thought that such a number of men, as after mentioned, went out of one family:
out of Zorah, and out of Eshtaol; the two places the spies were sent from, and now had returned unto: and upon their report, and at their instigation, and by the encouragement they gave, there were
six hundred men appointed with weapons of war; that set out armed from the above places, on the expedition to take Laish.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Judges 18:11. Six hundred men — These were not the whole, for we find they had children, c., Judges 18:21 but these appear to have been six hundred armed men.
