Numbers1:37

37 Those that were numbred of them, even of the tribe of Benjamin, were thirty and five thousand and four hundred .

The smallest number except one, though Benjamin had more immediate children than any of his brethren, Gen. 46. 21. whereas Dan had but one immediate son, Gen. 46. 23. yet now his number is the biggest but one of all the Tribes, and is almost double to that of Benjamin. Such great and strange changes God easily can, and frequently doth, make in families, 1 Sam 2. 5. And therefore let none boast or please themselves too much in their numerous off-spring.
