Numbers 27:19 - Forerunner Commentary

Numbers 27:19

17 ^awho may go out before them and go in before them, who may lead them out and bring them in, that the congregation of the Lord may not be ^blike sheep which have no shepherd.”

18 And the Lord said to Moses: “Take Joshua the son of Nun with you, a man ^ain whom is the Spirit, and ^blay your hand on him;

19 set him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation, and ^ainaugurate him in their sight.

20 And ^ayou shall give some of your authority to him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel ^bmay be obedient.

21 ^aHe shall stand before Eleazar the priest, who shall inquire before the Lord for him ^bby the judgment of the Urim. ^cAt his word they shall go out, and at his word they shall come in, he and all the children of Israel with him—all the congregation.”

22 So Moses did as the Lord commanded him. He took Joshua and set him before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation.

23 And he laid his hands on him ^aand inaugurated him, just as the Lord commanded by the hand of Moses.
