Commentary on Numbers 1:39
Dan's 62,700 fighting men made it one of the larger tribes, second only to Judah at this census. This military strength, however, did not guarantee spiritual faithfulness. The tribe's size actually enabled their later apostasy by providing resources to establish a rival worship center at Dan (Judges 18; 1 Kings 12:29). This demonstrates that gifts, talents, and resources become curses rather than blessings when deployed in rebellion against God. Spiritual faithfulness, not worldly strength, determines usefulness to God.
