Of the half-tribe of Manasseh, eighteen thousand, who were expressly named to come and make David king.
Of the Ephraimites, twenty thousand eight hundred, mighty warriors, notables in their ancestral houses.
Of Issachar, those who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, two hundred chiefs, and all their kindred under their command.
