Contextual Overview

¹⁵ Moses prayed, ¹⁶ " Lord God, source of all life, appoint, I pray, a man who can lead the people ¹⁷ and can command them in battle, so that your community will not be like sheep without a shepherd." ¹⁸ The Lord said to Moses, "Take Joshua son of Nun, a capable man, and place your hands on his head. ¹⁹ Have him stand in front of Eleazar the priest and the whole community, and there before them all proclaim him as your successor. ²⁰ Give him some of your own authority, so that the whole community of Israel will obey him. ²¹ He will depend on Eleazar the priest, who will learn my will by using the Urim and Thummim. In this way Eleazar will direct Joshua and the whole community of Israel in all their affairs." ²² Moses did as the Lord had commanded him. He had Joshua stand before Eleazar the priest and the whole community. ²³ As the Lord had commanded, Moses put his hands on Joshua's head and proclaimed him as his successor.
