and his division
This phrase refers to the military organization of the Israelite camp during their wilderness journey. Each tribe was organized into divisions, which were essentially military units. This structure was crucial for maintaining order and readiness for battle as they traveled to the Promised Land. The division mentioned here is part of the tribe of Ephraim, one of the leading tribes of Israel, often associated with leadership and strength (Genesis 48:19).

numbers 32,200
The specific number of 32,200 men indicates the size of the fighting force from the tribe of Ephraim. This count reflects only the men who were able to go to war, typically those aged 20 and above (Numbers 1:3). The precise number underscores the importance of order and preparation in the Israelite community. It also highlights the fulfillment of God's promise to Abraham regarding the multiplication of his descendants (Genesis 15:5). The large number of warriors signifies God's blessing and provision for the nation, ensuring they were equipped for the challenges ahead.
