Matthew Poole and continuators on Numbers 26:54

54 To many thou shalt give the more inheritance, and to few thou shalt give the less inheritance▪ to every one shall his inheritance be given, according to those that were numbred of him .

Thou Moses, partly by thy self, for he divided the land beyond Iordan to the two tribes and an half, and partly by thy successour Ioshua whom thou shalt empower and command to do it.

According to the number of the families and persons now numbred and being 20 years old, no regard being to be had either to any increase of the number by those who came up to that age between this time and the division of the land, or to the diminution of this number by the sword of Canaanites or otherwise.
