And Joab reported to David the total number of the troops.
Joab, the commander of David's army, was tasked with conducting a census of Israel's fighting men. This action was controversial because it was seen as an expression of pride and reliance on military strength rather than trust in God. The act of numbering the troops was against God's will, as it suggested a lack of faith in His provision and protection. Joab's role here is significant as he often served as a voice of reason to David, though he was not without his own flaws. The reporting of the census results to David highlights the completion of a task that was initiated by the king, despite Joab's initial reluctance and the divine disapproval that would follow.

In all Israel there were 1,100,000 men who drew the sword,
The figure of 1,100,000 men indicates the vast military potential of Israel at the time. This number reflects the combined forces of the northern tribes, excluding Judah. The phrase "men who drew the sword" emphasizes their readiness for battle, underscoring the military might of the nation. This census, however, was not just a logistical exercise; it was a spiritual misstep that led to divine judgment. The large number also serves to illustrate the extent of David's kingdom and the prosperity and strength that Israel enjoyed under his rule, yet it also foreshadows the impending consequences of David's actions.

including 470,000 in Judah.
Judah, David's own tribe, is singled out with a specific count of 470,000 men. This distinction between Israel and Judah is significant, as it foreshadows the eventual division of the kingdom after Solomon's reign. The separate mention of Judah highlights its importance and centrality in David's reign, as well as its future role in the history of Israel. The tribe of Judah would later become the southern kingdom, maintaining the Davidic line and ultimately leading to the birth of Jesus Christ, who is often referred to as the Lion of the tribe of Judah. This connection to Christ underscores the messianic significance of the tribe and its enduring legacy in biblical history.

Teaching Points
The Danger of Pride and Self-Reliance
David's decision to count the troops reflects a reliance on human strength rather than God's provision. This serves as a warning against pride and self-reliance in our own lives.

Obedience to God's Commands
The census was against God's will, illustrating the importance of obedience to divine instructions. We must seek God's guidance in our decisions.

The Role of Leadership and Accountability
As a leader, David's actions had consequences for the entire nation. This underscores the responsibility leaders have and the impact of their decisions on others.

The Importance of Repentance
David's eventual repentance and God's mercy highlight the importance of turning back to God when we err. Repentance restores our relationship with Him.

Trust in God's Sovereignty
The account reminds us that ultimate security and success come from God, not from human efforts or numbers.

What Does 1 Chronicles 21:5 Mean
And Joab reported to David the total number of the troops.

• Joab, the seasoned commander, completes the census David demanded (1 Chronicles 21:2–4; compare2 Samuel 24:3).

• His “report” underscores personal responsibility; numbers matter, yet the heart motive matters more (Proverbs 27:24;1 Samuel 14:6).

• By presenting raw figures, Joab tacitly warns David that trust in headcounts can eclipse trust in the Lord (Psalm 20:7; 33:16–17).

In all Israel there were 1,100,000 men who drew the sword

• The phrase “men who drew the sword” stresses combat-ready soldiers, not simply adult males (Jud 8:10).

• This vast force fulfills earlier promises of national growth (Genesis 22:17) but also exposes David to the temptation of pride (Deuteronomy 8:13–14).

• The number dwarfs previous musters (Numbers 26:51) and hints at the kingdom’s zenith, yet God soon disciplines David for relying on statistics instead of covenant faithfulness (1 Chronicles 21:7;2 Samuel 24:12–13).

including 470,000 in Judah

• Judah’s separate total highlights the tribe’s prominence: royal lineage (Genesis 49:10), leadership in conquest (Jude 1:1–2), and the future Messianic line (Ruth 4:18–22).

• Judah’s portion is nearly half Israel’s total, underscoring why David’s dynasty emerges from this tribe (2 Samuel 2:4; 7:16).

• The chronicler may omit Benjamin and Levi here (cf.1 Chronicles 21:6) to show Joab’s reluctance and God’s disapproval—an implicit reminder that selective obedience is still disobedience (1 Samuel 15:22–23).

summary

Joab’s figures reveal a nation blessed with extraordinary military strength, yet the account’s backdrop teaches that confidence must rest in the Lord, not in numbers. Israel’s 1,100,000 warriors and Judah’s 470,000 reflect fulfilled promises and Judah’s rising prominence, but they also precede God’s judgment on David’s pride. The verse calls readers to value obedience and humble reliance on God over any impressive statistics.

(5)The number.--Muster, or census (miphq?d). The first clause is identical with Samuel, but has "David" for "the king," as elsewhere.

And all they of Israel.--And all Israel became (came to). The numbers are different in Samuel, which states them as 800,000 for Israel and 500,000 for Judah. The latter may fairly be regarded as a round number (500,000), our text giving the more exact total (470,000). As to the former, we may assume that the 1,100,000 of our text is an error of transcription, or, more probably, that the traditions respecting this census varied, as may easily have happened, inasmuch as the numbers were not registered in the royal archives (1Chronicles 27:24). Perhaps, however, our estimate includes the standing army of David, reckoned (1Chronicles 27:1-15) at a total of 288,000 men (in round numbers, 300,000); thus 800,000 (Sam.) + 300,000 = 1,100.000 (Chron.).

Verse 5. - The report of the numbers as given in this verse doesnot tally with that of the parallel place. Here they are three hundred thousand more for Israel, and thirty thousand fewer for Judah, than there. No really satisfactory explanation of these discrepancies has yet appeared. The somewhat ingenious suggestion that the Chronicle-compiler counted in the standing army (two hundred and eighty-eight thousand,1 Chronicles 27:1-15) for Israel, and omitted from Judah a supposed "thirty thousand," under the head of "the thirty" of our ch. 11; while the writer of the Book of Samuel did exactly the converse, - can scarcely pass muster, although it must be noticed that it would meet in the main the exigencies of the case. A likelier suggestion might be found in a comparison of the statements of our ver. 6 compared with1 Chronicles 27:22-24. Indeed, the last sentence of this last-quoted verse (1 Chronicles 27:24) may possibly contain the explanation of all (cutup.Numbers 1:47-50;Numbers 2:33). That Joab utterly refused to number Levi, because this was a thing most distinctly prohibited (and further because it was not material to David's presumable objects), was quite to be expected. And though Joab is said in the following verse not to have numbered Benjamin, it is possible enough that he may have known this number (1 Chronicles 7:6-11). Yet see what follows.
