Episode description

The Book of Numbers (in Hebrew במדבר bemidbàr, "in the desert", from the incipit; Greek Αριθμοί, arithmòi, "numbers", as it begins with the description of a census; Latin Numeri) is the fourth book of the Hebrew Torah and of the Christian Bible.

It is written in Hebrew and, according to the hypothesis most widely shared by scholars, its final editing, by unknown authors, is placed in the 6th-5th century BC in Judea, on the basis of previous oral and written traditions (see Documentary Hypothesis).

It consists of 36 chapters describing the history of the Jews during their stay in the Sinai desert (around 1200 BC).
