Contextual Overview
9 "At that time I said to you, ‘I am not able to take care of you alone. 10 The Lord your God has made you become many people. Now you are as many as the stars of heaven. 11 May the Lord, the God of your fathers, make you 1,000 times as many as you are. May He bring good to you just as He has promised you! 12 How can I alone carry the weight of your troubles? 13 Choose wise, understanding and able men from your family groups. And I will make them leaders over you.' 14 You answered me and said, ‘The thing which you have spoken is good for us to do.' 15 So I took the leaders of your family groups, wise and able men. I made them leaders over you, leaders of thousands, of hundreds, of fifties and of tens, and rulers of your family groups. 16 "Then I said to your judges at that time, ‘Listen to the problems between your brothers. And be right in what you decide between a man and his brother or the stranger who is with him. 17 Do not show favor as you judge. Listen to the small and the great alike. Do not be afraid of any man, because you are judging for God. Bring to me any problem that is too hard for you, and I will hear it.' 18 I told you at that time all the things you should do.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
The Lord God of your fathers make you a thousand times so many more as ye are,.... This prayer he made, or this blessing he pronounced on them, to show that he did not envy their increase, nor was any ways uneasy at it, but rejoiced in it, though he gave it as a reason of his not being able to govern them alone:
and bless you, as he hath promised you: with all kind of blessings, as he had often promised their fathers.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
This appointment of the âcaptainsâ (compare Exodus 18:21 ff) must not be confounded with that of the elders in Numbers 11:16 ff. The former would number 78,600; the latter were 70 only.
A comparison between this passage and that in Exodus makes it obvious that Moses is only touching on certain parts of the whole history, without regard to order of time, but with a special purpose. This important arrangement for the good government of the people took place before they left Horeb to march direct to the promised land. This fact sets more clearly before us the perverseness and ingratitude of the people, to which the orator next passes; and shows, what he was anxious to impress, that the fault of the 40 yearsâ delay rested only with themselves!
