NOTE

Parallelism between Exodus and Numbers

The transition between the second and third movements in Numbers mirrors the beginning of the Exodus scroll.

This parallelism serves as a deliberate connection between the king of Moab and Pharaoh in how they perceive the Israelites as a thriving and formidable group.
