Bible Verse Review
from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge
whose number: This was probably the number returned by Joab and his assistants, when they made that census of the people with which God was so much displeased. We find that the effective men of Issachar amounted to 87,000 - 1 Chronicles 7:5, 1 Chronicles 7:22, 600 of whom descended from Tola his eldest son; but whether the 36,000 - 1 Chronicles 7:4 were descendants of Tola by Uzzi, and the 22,600 his descendants by Tola's other sons; or whether another of Issachar's sons be intended, does not clearly appear; though the former seems the more obvious meaning. 1 Chronicles 21:1-5, 1 Chronicles 27:1, 1 Chronicles 27:23, 1 Chronicles 27:24, 2 Samuel 24:1-9

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the sons of Tola,.... The eldest son of Issachar, whose posterity are only reckoned by name:
Uzzi, and Rephaiah, and Jeriel, and Jahmai, and Jibsam, and Shemuel, heads of their father's house, to wit, of Tola; the principal man of his family:
[they] were valiant men of might in their generations, famous for their courage and military exploits, though they sprang from Tola, whose name signifies "a worm"; and which name Bochart k conjectures was given him by his parents, because he was so weakly that they had no hopes of raising him; and yet from him sprung such mighty men, and from them such a numerous race, as follows:
whose number was, in the days of David, two and twenty thousand and six hundred; besides those of the posterity of Uzzi, after mentioned. This was at the time Joab took the number of Israel, by the order of David, 1 Chronicles 21:5.
k Hierozoic. par. 2. l. 4. c. 21. col. 630.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Whose number was in the days of David ... - The writer would seem by this passage to have had access to the statistics of the tribes collected by David, when he sinfully “numbered the people” (marginal reference). The numbers given in 1 Chronicles 7:4-5 probably came from the same source.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Chronicles 7:2. Whose number was in the days of David — Whether this was the number returned by Joab and his assistants, when they made that census of the people with which God was so much displeased, we know not. It is worthy of remark that we read here the sum of three tribes, Benjamin, Issachar, and Asher, under the reign of David, which is mentioned nowhere else; and yet we have no account here of the other tribes, probably because the author found no public registers in which such enumeration was recorded.
