Verse 36 is found in chapter 10 of Numbers. Moses invites Hobab to accompany Israel and recognizes the usefulness of his knowledge of the territory, while the marching formulas express confidence in God’s presence. Hobab’s invitation and Moses’ words show two complementary dimensions: Israel depends on God, but it also uses human resources and practical experience during its journey.
