King James Translators' Notes

offering: Heb. heave offering


Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

31:48-54 The success of the Israelites had been very remarkable, so small a company overcoming such multitudes, but it was still more wonderful that not one was slain or missing. They presented the gold they found among the spoils, as an offering to the Lord. Thus they confessed, that instead of claiming a reward for their service, they needed forgiveness of much that had been amiss, and desired to be thankful for the preservation of their lives, which might justly have been taken away.


Numbers 31:51 Moses and Eleazar the priest accepted from them the gold--all the crafted articles.
Numbers 31:53 Each soldier had taken plunder for himself.
