“And all the firstborn males by the number of names, from a month old and upward, of those that were numbered of them, were twenty and two thousand two hundred and threescore and thirteen.”
And all the firstborn males according to the number of names from a month old and upward of those that were numbered of them were twenty-two thousand two hundred and seventy-three — the total of Israel's firstborn males (22,273) exceeds the Levite total (22,300, from verse 39), creating a small numerical imbalance that is resolved through a redemption payment.
