None but Caleb and Joshua was left of those who were numbered at Sinai These were the descendants of Simeon by their clans: The tribe of Simeon is one of the twelve tribes of Israel, named after Simeon, the second son of Jacob and Leah.

The tribe of Simeon is notable for its decrease in numbers compared to the first census in Numbers 1, reflecting possible divine judgment or consequences of past actions, such as the incident at Baal Peor (Numbers 25).

Teaching Points The Importance of Lineage and HeritageUnderstanding our spiritual heritage can provide insight into our identity and purpose in God's plan. Just as the Israelites were reminded of their lineage, Christians are called to remember their spiritual heritage in Christ. God's Faithfulness Across Generations Despite the failures of the previous generation, God remains faithful to His promises. This encourages believers to trust in God's faithfulness, regardless of past failures. The Role of Community in God's Plan The listing of clans emphasizes the importance of community and belonging. In the body of Christ, each member plays a vital role, contributing to the overall mission of the Church. Accountability and Consequences The census serves as a reminder of the consequences of disobedience, as the previous generation perished in the wilderness. Believers are called to live obediently, understanding that actions have consequences.Verse 12. - The sons of Simeon. As in Genesis 46:10; Exodus 6:15, with the omission of Ohad, who may not have founded any family. In such cases it is no doubt possible that there were children, but that for some reason they failed to hold together, and became attached to other families. In 1 Chronicles 4:24 the sons of Simeon appear as Nemuel, Jamin, Jarib, Zerah, and Shaul. In Genesis and Exodus the first appears as Jemuel. These minute variations are only important as showing that Divine inspiration did not preserve the sacred records from errors of transcription. Parallel Commentaries ...
