But David took not the number of them from twenty years old and under: because the LORD had said he would increase Israel like to the stars of the heavens. David took not It seems probable, from this passage, that Joab began, by David's order, to number the children, as well as adults, but was prevented from finishing the account, probably because the plague had begun. The numbering of the effective men might have been deemed a political expedient; but pride and ostentation alone could dictate the numbering of minors and infants, especially as God had pronounced the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, innumerable. from twenty Numbers 1:18 And they assembled all the congregation together on the first day … he would increase Genesis 15:5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, … Hebrews 11:12 Therefore sprang there even of one, and him as good as dead, so many … Joab the son of Zeruiah began to number, but he finished not, because there fell wrath for it against Israel; neither was the number put in the account of the chronicles of king David. began to number 1 Chronicles 21:1-17 And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel… 2 Samuel 24:1-15 And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he … was the number put [heb] ascended the number.

The Hebrew shikmin, Syriac shekmo, and Arabic jummeez, is the (), or sycomore, of the Greeks, so called from () a fig-tree, and () a mulberry tree, because it resembles the latter in its leaves, and the former in its fruits. `The sycamore,' say Mr. Norded, `is of the height of a beech, and bears its fruit in a manner quite different from other trees: it has them on the trunk itself, which shoots out little sprigs, in form of grape stalks, at the end of which grow the fruit close to one another, almost like a cluster of grapes. The tree is always green, and bears fruit several times in the year, without observing any certain seasons; for I have seen some sycamores that have given fruit two months after others. The fruit has the figure and smell of real figs, but is inferior to them in the taste, having a disgusting sweetness. Its colour is a yellow, inclining to an ochre, shadowed by a flesh colour. In the inside it resembles the common figs, excepting that it has a blackish colouring with yellow spots. This sort of tree is pretty common in Egypt; the people, for the greater part, live on its fruit, and think themselves well regaled when they have a piece of bread, a couple of sycamore figs, and a pitcher of water.' 1 Kings 20:27 And the children of Israel were numbered, and were all present, and … And over the herds that fed in Sharon was Shitrai the Sharonite: and over the herds that were in the valleys was Shaphat the son of Adlai: Sharon 1 Chronicles 5:16 And they dwelled in Gilead in Bashan, and in her towns, and in all … Isaiah 65:10 And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place … Over the camels also was Obil the Ishmaelite: and over the asses was Jehdeiah the Meronothite: the camels Job 1:3 His substance also was seven thousand sheep, and three thousand camels, … the Ishmaelite Genesis 47:6 The land of Egypt is before you; in the best of the land make your … And over the flocks was Jaziz the Hagerite.
