Here’s a very interesting observation: in the 40 years in the wilderness, the number of fighting men replenished itself to within 5,000 from the census taken at the beginning of the journey. Just goes to show you how God works out His plan to the minutest detail. You can’t out work, out smart, or out plan God’s sovereignty. What He says, He does. Why try to fight it?
63 So these are the results of the registration of the people of Israel as conducted by Moses and Eleazar the priest on the plains of Moab beside the Jordan River, across from Jericho. 64 Not one person on this list had been among those listed in the previous registration taken by Moses and Aaron in the wilderness of Sinai. 65 For the Lord had said of them, “They will all die in the wilderness.” Not one of them survived except Caleb son of Jephunneh and Joshua son of Nun.
