Peter: Well, this chapter is a doozy! So, uh, Numbers 26 is all about the Lord telling Moses to take a census of all the Israelites, and the population count is 603,550. Oh, and then the Lord wanted to assign the tribes their allotted land according to the census numbers.
Lois: Wow, that's a lot of people!
Brian: Yeah, and they're all wearing those funny hats and stuff.
Stewie: Ah, yes, it's like a scene from Master and Commander, but with sandals instead of boots!
Peter: Heh, yep! And, uh, then the Lord tells Moses to divide the land among the nine and a half tribes, 'cause the Levites don't get a portion - they're the Lord's special tribe.
Lois: Ah, so they get special privileges?
Brian: Well, yeah, that's what it looks like.
Stewie: Well, if they're the Lord's special tribe, then I want to be the Lord's extra special tribe!
Peter: Uh, I don't think that's how it works, Stewie.
Lois: Yeah, I think you'll just have to settle for being extra special in our hearts.
Brian: That's right, Stewie. Now, uh, let's see here - the Lord then tells Moses to assign the tribes their allotted land, and the Israelites obey and move in.
Stewie: Ah, neat! A new home for everyone!
Peter: Yeah, it's like a biblical version of Trading Spaces.
Lois: Peter!
Brian: Heh, anyway, that's it for Numbers 26!
