Victims of circumstance owe it to fate. Victims of choice owe it to themselves.

YHWH prohibited this activity because He wanted Israel to rely on Him and Him alone. Doing a census yieldedinformation regarding the manpower the Israel possessed that could be translated into fighting strength. I offer Jericho and Gideon as prime examples of His intervention that did not rely on numerical superiority.

Shalom
