Moses, Eleazar, and all the leaders of the congregation went to meet the returning army outside the camp.

Kill every woman who has slept with a man. The younger women who are virgins you can keep alive for yourselves.

All of you and your prisoners who have killed a person or touched the dead are to purify yourselves on the third day and the seventh day. 20Also purify everything: garments, leather goods, things made of goat hair, and every article of wood.” 21Then the priest Eleazar said to the soldiers who had gone to battle, “This is the legal statute the Lord commanded Moses: 22The gold, silver, bronze, iron, tin, and lead—

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And Moses and Eleazar the priest, and all the princes of the congregation,.... Attended, no doubt, with a proper retinue:
went forth to meet them without the camp; partly to do honour to them, and to congratulate them on their victory, and partly to hinder them going into the camp directly, until they were purified; see
Genesis 14:17.
