| Summary |
"The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 04: Numbers" is a sacred religious text, part of the Old Testament, traditionally attributed to Moses, and likely written in ancient times during the early history of Israel. This book focuses on the experiences of the Israelites during their journey from Egypt to the Promised Land, detailing their preparations, regulations, and the divine laws set forth for them. The opening of Numbers begins with instructions from God to Moses regarding the census of the Israelites, which marks the organization of the Israelite community into tribes and families. It emphasizes the importance of the Levites in serving the Tabernacle and highlights the arrangement of the tribes as they camped in the wilderness. The text systematically presents the procedures for conducting the census and the duties that were assigned to the Levites and other tribes, establishing a framework for worship and community life among the Israelites during their long journey.
