“These are the sons of Benjamin after their families: and they that were numbered of them were forty and five thousand and six hundred.”
These are the sons of Benjamin after their families according to those that were numbered of them: forty-five thousand and six hundred — Benjamin is numbered at 45,600, compared to 35,400 in the first census, an increase of over 10,000. This growth in Benjamin's numbers foreshadows the tribe's future importance as the home of Jerusalem and the monarchy.
