  Encamp
     An encampment was the resting-place for a longer or shorter
     period of an army or company of travellers (Ex. 13:20; 14:19;
     Josh. 10:5; 11:5).
     
       The manner in which the Israelites encamped during their march
     through the wilderness is described in Num. 2 and 3. The order
     of the encampment (see CAMP) was preserved in the
     march (Num. 2:17), the signal for which was the blast of two
     silver trumpets. Detailed regulations affecting the camp for
     sanitary purposes are given (Lev. 4:11, 12; 6:11; 8:17; 10:4, 5;
     13:46; 14:3; Num. 12:14, 15; 31:19; Deut. 23:10, 12).
     
       Criminals were executed without the camp (Lev. 4:12; comp.
     John 19:17, 20), and there also the young bullock for a
     sin-offering was burnt (Lev. 24:14; comp. Heb. 13:12).
     
       In the subsequent history of Israel frequent mention is made
     of their encampments in the time of war (Judg. 7:18; 1 Sam.
     13:2, 3, 16, 23; 17:3; 29:1; 30:9, 24). The temple was sometimes
     called "the camp of the Lord" (2 Chr. 31:2, R.V.; comp. Ps.
     78:28). The multitudes who flocked to David are styled "a great
     host (i.e., "camp;" Heb. mahaneh), like the host of God" (1 Chr.
     12:22).
