Contextual Overview

15And Moses speaks to YHWH, saying,16"YHWH, God of the spirits of all flesh, appoint a man over the congregation, 17who goes out before them, and who comes in before them, and who takes them out, and who brings them in, and the congregation of YHWH is not as sheep which have no shepherd." 18And YHWH says to Moses, "Take Joshua son of Nun to yourself, a man in whom [is] the Spirit, and you have laid your hand on him, 19and have caused him to stand before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation, and have charged him before their eyes, 20and have put of your splendor on him, so that all the congregation of the sons of Israel listens. 21And he stands before Eleazar the priest, and he has inquired before YHWH for him by the judgment of the Lights; at his word they go out, and at his word they come in, he and all the sons of Israel with him—even all the congregation." 22And Moses does as YHWH has commanded him, and takes Joshua and causes him to stand before Eleazar the priest and before all the congregation, 23and lays his hands on him and charges him, as YHWH has spoken by the hand of Moses.
