Contextual Overview

5 The tribe of Reuben, the first son born to Israel, was counted. From Hanoch came the Hanochite family group; from Pallu came the Palluite family group; 6 from Hezron came the Hezronite family group; from Carmi came the Carmite family group. 7 These were the family groups of Reuben, and the total number of men was 43,730. 8 The son of Pallu was Eliab, 9 and Eliab's sons were Nemuel, Dathan, and Abiram. Dathan and Abiram were the leaders who turned against Moses and Aaron and followed Korah when he turned against the Lord . 10 The earth opened up and swallowed them and Korah; they died at the same time the fire burned up the 250 men. This was a warning, 11 but the children of Korah did not die. 12 These were the family groups in the tribe of Simeon: From Nemuel came the Nemuelite family group; from Jamin came the Jaminite family group; from Jakin came the Jakinite family group; 13 from Zerah came the Zerahite family group; from Shaul came the Shaulite family group. 14 These were the family groups of Simeon, and the total number of men was 22,200.
