Numbers 31:35
33 And threescore and twelve thousand beeves,
34 And threescore and one thousand asses,
And thirty and two thousand persons in all, of women that had not known man by lying with him.
36 And the half, which was the portion of them that went out to war, was in number three hundred thousand and seven and thirty thousand and five hundred sheep:
37 And the LORD’s tribute of the sheep was six hundred and threescore and fifteen.
Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
