Contradiction with Genesis 1:28
This verse speaks of increasing and multiplying, which could contrast with the concept of listing numbers, as Numbers 26:6 involves enumeration.
Genesis 1:28: And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. [moveth: Heb. creepeth]
