Enough work for everyone! “All…who came to do the work of serving and carrying the Tent of Meeting were numbered 8,580.” “At the LORD’s command through Moses, each was assigned his work and told what to carry.” (Numbers 3:25-4:49) Skeptics probably mumbled about having to do a seemingly useless task…counting the available Israelites.
