Commentary on Numbers 2:19
Ephraim's census total (40,500) made it smaller than Manasseh at this census, yet Jacob's prophecy elevated the younger above the elder (Genesis 48:19). This ongoing reversal pattern—younger superseding elder—points ultimately to Christ, the second Adam, superseding the first Adam. God's sovereign election operates independently of natural advantages, directing glory to His grace rather than human merit.
