Numbers 2:27
25 On the north side, the divisions of Dan are to camp under their standard: The leader of the Danites is Ahiezer son of Ammishaddai,
26 and his division numbers 62,700.
The tribe of Asher will camp next to it. The leader of the Asherites is Pagiel son of Ocran,
28 and his division numbers 41,500.
29 Next will be the tribe of Naphtali. The leader of the Naphtalites is Ahira son of Enan,
This was said to Israel at a particular time, so it is wise to read it together with the surrounding text. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
