The sons of Simeon after their families
on Numbers 26:12-18
Simeon comes out of the wilderness at twenty and two thousand and two hundred, down from fifty and nine thousand and three hundred at Sinai. That is a loss of more than thirty seven thousand men and the heaviest fall of any tribe, and 25:14 had just named Zimri, the man slain at Peor, as a prince of a chief house among the Simeonites. Gad falls too, by about five thousand. The chapter reports both numbers and says nothing about either.
