Contextual Overview

11 And so it came to pass in the second year, in the second month on the twentieth of the month, that the cloud lifted itself up, from off the habitation of the testimony; 12 and the sons of Israel set forward by their removals from the desert of Sinai, and then the cloud abode in the desert of Paran. 13 Thus then did they set forward for the first time, - at the bidding of Yahweh, by the hand of Moses. 14 So the standard of the camp of the sons of Judah set forward first, by their hosts, and over his own host, was Nahshon, son of Amminadab; 15 and, over the host of the tribe of the sons of Issachar, Nethanel, son of Zuar; 16 and, over the host of the tribe of the sons of Zebulun, Eliab, son of Helon. 17 Then was taken down the habitation, - and the sons of Gershon and the sons of Merari set forward bearing the habitation. 18 Then set forward the standard of the camp of Reuben, by their hosts, - and over his own host, Elizur, son of Shedeur; 19 and, over the host of the tribe of the sons of Simeon, Shelumiel, son of Zurishaddai; 20 and, over the host of the tribe of the sons of Gad, Eliasaph, son of Deuel.
