We as israelites are only allowed to count the number of the standing army of the men of israel and not the actual everyday average men of israel and especially if the LORD didnt tell us to do so
So esau having records of all the israelites born or at least even millions of us in america and europe and australia and just everywhere he is in charge is an abomination in itself
This is what we get as punishment for breaking The LORD Yahawah HIS commandments.. which he is forgiving us right now if we confess and acknowledge we sinned against him and him only
Psalm 51:4 Against thee, thee only, have I sinned, and done this evil in thy sight: that thou mightest be justified when thou speakest, and be clear when thou judgest.
