Chp. 25 verse 9 - Chp. 26 verse 23: Introduction, Hashem tells Moshe to induct Pinchas into the priesthood as a reward, for his act of killing Zimri and Cosbi. Hashem then tells Moshe and Elazar the priest to count the men between the ages of 20 to 60 years of age. They counted them according to their families and names. This information would be used to divide the land according to a lottery.
