Who told David to number the people? In Samuel we read that God moved David to number the people, but Chronicles says that Satan provoked David to number the people.	Date: Sep 4, 2006 By: Adam Engesath 31 Problems 29 Solutions

I believed that God just allowed this to happen. He allowed Satan to do it, just as He did in the book of Job.
