4. “You must count every man who is 20 years old or older. The Lord gave Moses this command.” Here is the list of the Israelites who came out of Egypt:

6. Hezron—the Hezronite family group; Carmi—the Carmite family group.
7. The total number of men in these family groups from the tribe of Reuben was 43,730.
8. Pallu’s son was Eliab.
9. Eliab had three sons—Nemuel, Dathan, and Abiram. Remember, Dathan and Abiram were the two leaders who turned against Moses and Aaron. They followed Korah when Korah turned against the Lord.
10. That was the time when the earth opened and swallowed Korah and all of his followers. And 250 men died! That was a warning to all the Israelites.
