Numbers 2:4
2 “The Israelites are to camp around the Tent of Meeting at a distance from it, each man under his standard, with the banners of his family.
3 On the east side, toward the sunrise, the divisions of Judah are to camp under their standard: The leader of the descendants of Judah is Nahshon son of Amminadab,
and his division numbers 74,600.
5 The tribe of Issachar will camp next to it. The leader of the Issacharites is Nethanel son of Zuar,
6 and his division numbers 54,400.
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.
