Gill's Notes on the Bible
Ver. 66,67 Their horses were seven hundred thirty and six, their mules two hundred forty and five, their camels four hundred thirty and five, [their] asses six thousand seven hundred and twenty.

c Ed. of Sixtus V. and the Lovain in James's Contrariety of Popish Bibles, p. 295.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Ezra 2:66. Their horses - seven hundred, c. — They went into captivity, stripped of every thing they now return from it, abounding in the most substantial riches, viz., horses 736, or, according to Esdras, 7036; mules, 245; camels, 435; asses, 6720; besides gold, and silver, and rich stuffs.
