This article is about the biblical book. For the mathematical concept, see Number.
Numbers [Hebrew: במדבר] is the fourth book of the Bible in the Old Testament. The Hebrew title of the book literally means "In the desert"[1]

The book is considered to have been written by Moses along with the other books of the Torah (the first five books of the Old Testament). It relates the story of Israel's journey from Mount Sinai to the plains of Moab on the border of Canaan.
