Contextual Overview

15 Then Moses said to the Lord, 16 Let the Lord, the God of the spirits of all flesh, put a man at the head of this people, 17 To go out and come in before them and be their guide; so that the people of the Lord may not be like sheep without a keeper. 18 And the Lord said to Moses, Take Joshua, the son of Nun, a man in whom is the spirit, and put your hand on him; 19 And take him before Eleazar the priest and all the meeting of the people, and give him his orders before their eyes. 20 And put your honour on him, so that all the children of Israel may be under his authority. 21 He will take his place before Eleazar the priest, so that he may get directions from the Lord for him, with the Urim: at his word they will go out, and at his word they will come in, he and all the children of Israel. 22 So Moses did as the Lord said: he took Joshua and put him before Eleazar the priest and the meeting of the people: 23 And he put his hands on him and gave him his orders, as the Lord had said by Moses.
