His division
This phrase refers to the specific group or military unit within the larger camp of the Israelites. In the context of Numbers, the Israelites are organized into divisions by their tribes, each with a specific role and position as they journey through the wilderness. The Hebrew word for "division" is "מַחֲנֶה" (machaneh), which can also mean camp or encampment. This organization reflects God's order and structure for His people, emphasizing the importance of community and collective responsibility. It serves as a reminder that each person has a role to play in the body of Christ, contributing to the mission and purpose of God's kingdom.

numbers
The act of numbering or counting the people is significant in the book of Numbers, as it demonstrates God's attention to detail and His care for each individual within the community. The Hebrew root "פָּקַד" (paqad) implies a sense of oversight, care, and accountability. This census is not merely a logistical exercise but a divine mandate to ensure that every member of the community is accounted for and valued. It underscores the biblical principle that God knows each of His people by name and is intimately involved in their lives.

57,400
This specific number represents the size of the division from the tribe of Issachar. In the context of the ancient Near East, such a large number signifies strength and capability, especially in terms of military power. The precision of this number highlights the historical reality of the Israelite community and their readiness for the challenges ahead. It also serves as a testament to God's promise to Abraham to make his descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky (Genesis 15:5). The growth of the Israelite population is a fulfillment of God's covenant and a demonstration of His faithfulness.
