John Gill's Bible Commentary Ver. 7. Of Judah; Nahshon the son of Amminadab . (See Gill on “ Numbers 1:5”).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 1-43 - The people were numbered to show God's faithfulness in thus increasin the seed of Jacob, that they might be the better trained for the war and conquest of Canaan, and to ascertain their families in order to the division of the land. It is said of each tribe, that those wer numbered who were able to go forth to war; they had wars before them though now they met with no opposition. Let the believer be prepared to withstand the enemies of his soul, though all may appear to be peace.
