Il titolo “Numeri” è stato dato a questo libro dai traduttori della cosiddetta Settanta – traduzione in lingua greca della Bibbia ebraica, presumably written between the 3rd and 1st centuries BC. -, for the two censuses described in the book: the first, two years after leaving Egypt, the second near the Jordan River, in the fortieth year. Like the rest of the Pentateuch, it was written by Moses himself.
The text describes suffering, the disillusions, the revolts of the people of Israel wandering in the desert, after the escape from Egypt and the various tests to which he is subjected to demonstrate his loyalty, faith and adherence to the divine promises of a new land to inhabit.
The census at different moments of the long period of exile documents the generational change between the fugitives at the beginning of the exodus and those, although still on the run, predisposed by age and desire to stay in war, necessary against other peoples in order to conquer, In the end, the promised land.
