Commentary on Numbers 1:12

Dan's inclusion despite the tribe's later apostasy (Judges 18; 1 Kings 12:28-30) demonstrates that God's electing purposes in calling Israel were not dependent on their future faithfulness but on His sovereign grace. The tribe that would later establish idolatrous worship still received full status in the wilderness organization, showing that God's common grace and providential care extend even to those who will later prove unfaithful, while His special saving grace preserves a remnant.
