       There were more Levites employed as judges with the two tribes
       and half on the other side of Jordan, than with all the rest
       of the tribes; there were two thousand seven hundred, whereas
       on the west side of Jordan there were only one thousand seven
       hundred.  Either those remote tribes were not so well
       furnished as the rest with judges of their own, or because
       they lay farthest from Jerusalem, on the borders of the
       neighbouring nations, and were thus much in danger of being
       infected with idolatry, they most needed the help of Levites
       to prevent their running into the abominations of the
       idolaters.
