1 Chronicles 21:5 - Clarke's commentary and critical notes on the Bible

And Joab gave the sum of the number of the people unto David. And all they of Israel were a thousand thousand and an hundred thousand men that drew sword: and Judah was four hundred threescore and ten thousand men that drew sword. All they of Israel were a thousand thousand - Judah was four hundred threescore and ten thousand - In the parallel place, 2 Samuel 24:9 (note), the men of Israel are reckoned eight hundred thousand, and the men of Judah five hundred thousand.
