VERSE 1
   * :1


VERSE 2 
 - two trumpets.
  The necessity of such instruments will at once appear, when
  the amazing extent of this army is considered.  There were
  various kinds of trumpets among the ancients, of different
  forms and materials, as Eustathius shews on Homer, where he
  mentions six; the second of which was [            ,] turned
  up round, like a ram's horn; which he says the Egyptians used
  (from being invented by Osiris) when they assembled the
  people to their sacrifices.  But in opposition to that form,
  Moses commands these to be made long, in the shape of those
  used at present.  So Josephus informs us, who says they were
  near a cubit long; the tube of the thickness of a common pipe
  or flute; the mouth no wider than just to admit blowing into
  them; and their ends wide like those of a modern trumpet.

   * 2Ki 12:13 2Ch 5:12
- of a whole piece.
   * Ex 25:18,31 Eph 4:5
- the calling.

VERSE 4
    * Nu 1:4-16; 7:2 Ex 18:21 De 1:15


VERSE 5 
 - blow.
   * :6,7 Isa 58:1 Joe 2:1
- camps.
   * Nu 2:3-9


VERSE 6 
 - ye blow.
  A single alarm was a signal for the eastward division to
  march; two such alarms the signal for the south; and probably
  three for the west, and four for the North.  There appears
  therefore, a deficiency in the Hebrew Text, which is thus
  supplied by the LXX.:  [
                                                              ]
  "And when ye blow a third alarm, or signal, the camps on the
  west shall march; and when ye blow a fourth alarm, the camps
  on the north shall march."  This addition, however, is not
  acknowledged by the Samaritan, nor any other version than the
  Coptic, nor any MS. yet collated.

VERSE 11 
 - An. Ex. Is 2. Ijar.  on.
  The Israelites had lain encamped in the wilderness of Sinai
  about eleven months and twenty days (comp. Ex 19:1); and they
  now received the order of God to decamp, and proceed to the
  promised land:  the Samaritan, therefore, introduces at this
  place, nearly the words of De 1:6-8:  "And Jehovah spake unto
  Moses, saying, Ye have dwelt long enough in this mount; turn,
  and take your journey, etc."

  The following is the order in which this vast company
  marched:

  Judah:--Issachar, Zebulun, Gershonites, and Merarites,
  bearing the tabernacle.

  Reuben:--Simeon, Gad, Kohathites, with the sanctuary.

  Ephraim:--Manasseh, Benjamin.

  Dan:--Asher, Naphtali.

  Among other things, it should be remarked, that, according to
  a well-known rule of military tactics, the advanced, and
  rear-guards, were stronger then the center.

 - forasmuch.
  As the Israelites were under the immediate direction of God
  himself, and were guided by the pillar of cloud and fire, it
  might be supposed that they had no need of Hobab.  But it
  should be remembered, that the cloud directed only their
  general journeys, not their particular excursions.  Parties
  took several journeys while the grand army lay still.  (ch.
  13; 20; 31; 32.)
