SEV Biblia, Chapter 2:19
Su hueste, con los contados de ellos, cuarenta mil quinientos.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 19. And his host , etc.] That is, the host of Ephraim; and those that were numbered of them, [were] forty thousand and five hundred . 40,500 men. Not his camp, but his host, or the army, which consisted only of his own tribe (see Numbers 1:33).
Matthew Henry Commentary
The order of the tribes in their tents. --The tribes were to encamp about the tabernacle, which was to be in the midst of them. It was a token of God's gracious presence. Yet the were to pitch their tents afar off, in reverence to the sanctuary. The children of Israel put themselves in their posts, without murmuring of disputing; and as it was their safety, so it was their beauty. It is our duty and interest to be contented with the place allotted to us and to endeavour to occupy it in a proper manner, without envying of murmuring; without ambition or covetousness. Thus the gospel churc ought to be compact, according to the Scripture model, every on knowing and keeping his place; and then all that wish well to the church rejoice, beholding their order, Col 2:5 __________________________________________________________________
