Phrase of Scripture		Correlating Passages

eleventh day		"Dr. Adam Clarke remarks, that the Hebrew form of expression here, and in the 78th verse, has something curious in it; beyom āshtey āsar yom, ""in the day, the first and tenth day;"" beyom shenim āsar yom, ""in the day, two and tenth day."" But this is the idiom of the language; and to an original Hebrew, our almost anomalous words eleventh and twelfth, would appear as strange."
Pagiel		Num 1:13; Num 2:27
