Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 4. - A man of every tribe. The former census, which was for religious purposes only, was made with the assistance of the Levites. This, which was rather for political and military purposes, was supervised by the lay heads of the people.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(4) Of every tribe.--Or, for every tribe.Every one head . . . --The words may be rendered every one a head . . . There were many heads of fathers' houses in each tribe; but it appears from Numbers 1:16 (Numbers 7:10-11) that in each case the tribal prince was selected to preside over the census.
