''In brief'': The Book of Numbers is the fourth book of the Old Testament. In Hebrew it is called ba-midbar במדבר, i.e., "in the wilderness." In the Septuagint version it is called Arithmoi ("Numbers"), and this name is now the usual title of the book. It is so called because it contains a record of the numbering of the people in the wilderness of Sinai (1-4), and of their numbering afterwards on the plain of Moab (26). This book is of special historical interest as furnishing us with details as to the route of the Israelites in the wilderness and their principal encampments.
