Numbers

Numbers is the fourth book of the Torah (Pentateuch), consisting of 36 chapters. Its Hebrew title is Bemidbar (“In the Wilderness”), which actually captures the book’s content more accurately than the English name — it’s less about census-taking and more about Israel’s forty-year journey through the wilderness between Sinai and the plains of Moab.
