Commentary on Numbers 13:16

This verse lists spies from various tribes including Igal from Issachar. The repetitive naming formula emphasizes the official, formal nature of this mission—these were not random scouts but authorized representatives. Yet their authority did not guarantee wisdom or faith, as ten would later counsel rebellion against God's clear promise.
