Contextual Overview
1While Israel was staying in the Acacia Grove, the people began to prostitute themselves with the women of Moab. 2The women invited them to the sacrifices for their gods, and the people ate and bowed in worship to their gods. 3So Israel aligned itself with Baal of Peor, and the Lord’s anger burned against Israel. 4The Lord said to Moses, “Take all the leaders of the people and execute them in broad daylight before the Lord so that his burning anger may turn away from Israel.” 5So Moses told Israel’s judges, “Kill each of the men who aligned themselves with Baal of Peor.”

slay ye everyone his men, that were joined unto Baalpeor; all that were under their several districts and jurisdictions, that were found guilty of that crime; these they are ordered to slay, either with their own hands, or rather cause to be slain by proper persons they should appoint to be executioners.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Numbers 25:5. Slay ye every one his men — In the different departments where you preside over thousands, hundreds, fifties, and tens, slay all the culprits that shall be found.
