The Book of Numbers, which is the fourth book of the Bible, contains a total of 36 chapters. This book is traditionally attributed to Moses and covers the period of Israel’s wandering in the wilderness, detailing their journey from Mount Sinai to the borders of the Promised Land.
Each chapter includes various laws, census data, and narratives that illustrate the challenges faced by the Israelites and their relationship with God. The book gets its name from the two censuses of the Israelites mentioned in the first and last chapters, marking significant milestones in their journey.
