Contextual Overview
25 God said to Moses, "I want you and Eleazar the priest and the family leaders in the community to count the captives, people and animals. Split the plunder between the soldiers who fought the battle and the rest of the congregation. 28"Then tax the booty that goes to the soldiers at the rate of one life out of five hundred, whether humans, cattle, donkeys, or sheep. It's a God -tax taken from their half-share to be turned over to Eleazar the priest on behalf of God . Tax the congregation's half-share at the rate of one life out of fifty, whether persons, cattle, donkeys, sheep, goats, or other animals. Give this to the Levites who are in charge of the care of God 's Dwelling." 31 Moses and Eleazar followed through with what God had commanded Moses. 32The rest of the plunder taken by the army: 675,000 sheep 72,000 cattle 61,000 donkeys 32,000 women who were virgins 36The half-share for those who had fought in the war: 337,500 sheep, with a tax of 675 for God 36,000 cattle, with a tax of 72 for God 30,500 donkeys, with a tax of 61 for God 16,000 people, with a tax of 32 for God 41 Moses turned the tax over to Eleazar the priest as God 's part, following God 's instructions to Moses. 42The other half-share for the Israelite community that Moses set apart from what was given to the men who fought the war was: 337,500 sheep 36,000 cattle 30,500 donkeys 16,000 people 47 From the half-share going to the People of Israel, Moses, just as God had instructed him, picked one out of every fifty persons and animals and gave them to the Levites, who were in charge of maintaining God 's Dwelling.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And divide the prey into two parts,.... Into two equal parts, both the number of the people and of the cattle, when taken:
between them that took the war upon them, and went out to battle; the soldiers; and by this it appears that they went voluntarily and cheerfully:
and between all the congregation; so that the part of them that went to battle, and of those that stayed in the camp, were alike, and which in process of time became a statute and ordinance, 1 Samuel 30:24.
