Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Moses and Aaron took these men,.... They doubtless sent for them, and acquainted them with the nomination of them, by the Lord himself, for such a service; and they took them with them to the place where the number of the people was to be taken:

which are expressed by [their] names: in Numbers 1:16, and that as declared by the mouth of God himself.
