54. To many thou shalt give the more inheritance--that is, to the more
numerous tribes a larger allotment shall be granted.
according to those that were numbered--the number of persons twenty
years old at the time of the census being made, without taking into
account either the increase of those who might have attained that age,
when the land should be actually distributed, or the diminution from
that amount, occasioned during the war of invasion.
