The mention of "30,500 donkeys" highlights the wealth and resources acquired. Donkeys were valuable assets in ancient times, used for transportation, agriculture, and trade. This large number signifies the extent of the victory and the abundance of resources God provided to His people.<br><br>The use of donkeys in biblical times is significant; they were considered beasts of burden and symbols of service, humility, and peace. In the New Testament, Jesus' entry into Jerusalem on a donkey (<a href="/matthew/21.htm">Matthew 21:1-11</a>) fulfills the prophecy of <a href="/zechariah/9-9.htm">Zechariah 9:9</a>, symbolizing His role as the humble King of Peace. The large number of donkeys here contrasts with the singular donkey in the New Testament, emphasizing the shift from material wealth to spiritual fulfillment in Christ.<br><br>The division of spoils, including the donkeys, was part of God's instructions to Moses, reflecting the order and justice in distributing resources among the people. This act also underscores the importance of obedience to God's commands, as the Israelites were to follow specific guidelines in handling the spoils, ensuring that the Levites and the community were provided for.<br><br>In a broader biblical context, the mention of donkeys can also be seen as a reminder of God's provision and faithfulness. Throughout the Old Testament, God consistently provides for His people, whether through miraculous means or through the spoils of victory. This provision is a testament to His covenant relationship with Israel, which is ultimately fulfilled in the New Covenant through Jesus Christ.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/m/moses.htm">Moses</a></b><br>The leader of the Israelites, who is overseeing the division of the spoils of war after the battle against the Midianites.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/i/israelites.htm">Israelites</a></b><br>The people of God, who have been commanded to take vengeance on the Midianites for leading them into idolatry and immorality.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/m/midianites.htm">Midianites</a></b><br>A nomadic tribe that led Israel into sin, resulting in God's command for their destruction.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/e/eleazar_the_priest.htm">Eleazar the Priest</a></b><br>The priest who assists Moses in the distribution of the spoils and ensures that the laws of purification are followed.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/t/the_spoils_of_war.htm">The Spoils of War</a></b><br>The goods, livestock, and captives taken from the Midianites, which are to be divided among the warriors and the rest of the community.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/o/obedience_to_god's_commands.htm">Obedience to God's Commands</a></b><br>The Israelites' actions in <a href="/bsb/numbers/31.htm">Numbers 31</a> demonstrate the importance of complete obedience to God's instructions, even when they are difficult or challenging.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/t/the_consequences_of_sin.htm">The Consequences of Sin</a></b><br>The destruction of the Midianites serves as a sobering reminder of the consequences of leading others into sin, as seen in their previous actions against Israel.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/g/god's_provision_and_justice.htm">God's Provision and Justice</a></b><br>The division of the spoils, including the donkeys, illustrates God's provision for His people and His justice in rewarding those who faithfully serve Him.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/p/purity_and_holiness.htm">Purity and Holiness</a></b><br>The involvement of Eleazar the Priest underscores the need for spiritual purity and adherence to God's laws, even in the aftermath of battle.<br><br><b><a href="/topical/c/community_and_sharing.htm">Community and Sharing</a></b><br>The distribution of the spoils among the warriors and the community highlights the importance of sharing God's blessings and ensuring that all members of the community are cared for.<div class="vheading2">Lists and Questions</div><a href="/top10/lessons_from_numbers_31.htm">Top 10 Lessons from Numbers 31</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/evidence_for_midianite_captives'_capture.htm">Numbers 31:32-35: Is there any historical or archaeological evidence supporting the capture of such a large number of Midianite captives?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/how_does_spoils_distribution_fit_human_worth.htm">Numbers 31:28-30: How does distributing people as spoils align with the broader biblical theme of human worth?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/why_is_numbers_31's_warfare_approach_unique.htm">Numbers 31 compared to earlier laws in Exodus and Leviticus: Why does this narrative's approach to warfare seem inconsistent with other divine commandments?</a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><a href="/q/bible's_view_on_tithes,_offerings.htm">What does the Bible say about tithes and offerings?</a><a name="commentary" id="commentary"></a><span class="p"><br /><br /></span><span class="versiontext"><a href="/commentaries/numbers/31-45.htm">Parallel Commentaries ...</a></span><span class="p"><br /><br /><br /></span><a name="lexicon" id="lexicon"></a><div class="vheading">Hebrew</div><span class="word">30,500</span><br /><span class="heb">שְׁלֹשִׁ֥ים</span> <span class="translit">(šə·lō·šîm)</span><br /><span class="parse">Number -
