Będzie on jednak stawiał się przed kapłanem Eleazarem i jego prosił o rozstrzygnięcia za pomocą urim w obecności PANA. Na jego polecenie lud będzie wyruszał i powracał, to jest on sam, a z nim wszyscy synowie Izraela - całe zgromadzenie.
Nowa Biblia Gdańska (2012)
Także powinien stawać przed obliczem Elazara, kapłana, póki ten, przed WIEKUISTYM, będzie się pytał za niego postanowienia Urym. Według jego ust mają wychodzić i według jego ust mają wchodzić; on oraz z nim wszyscy synowie Israela, całe zgromadzenie.

Będzie on stawał przed kapłanem Eleazarem, aby ten za niego radził się przed PANEM za pośrednictwem sądu Urim. Na jego rozkaz będą wychodzić i na jego rozkaz będą wchodzić – on, a z nim wszyscy synowie Izraela, całe zgromadzenie.
Biblia Warszawska
Lecz przed Eleazara, kapłana, on przychodzić będzie, a ten będzie pytał dla niego Pana o wyrok urim. Na jego słowo będą wychodzić i na jego słowo wchodzić, on a z nim wszyscy synowie izraelscy i cały zbór.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest,.... This was for the honour of God, whose priest Eleazar was, and whose oracle was consulted by him; for it is said z, the high priest did not come into the presence of the king but when he pleased; and he did not stand before him, but the king stood before the high priest, as it is said, "and before Eleazar the priest shall he stand"; though it is commanded the high priest to honour the king, and to rise up and stand when he comes unto him; and the king does not stand before him, but when he consults for him by the judgment of Urim; and his posture seems to be different from other persons that consulted; for the same writer a observes, in answer to a question,

"how do they consult? the priest stands, and his face is before the ark, and he that consults is behind him, and his face to the back of the priest;''

whereas here Joshua stood before the priest, and so any king or supreme governor:

who shall ask counsel for him after the judgment of Urim before the Lord: of the Urim and Thummim which were in the breastplate of judgment, and of consultation by them, :- and from this place the Jews b infer that consultation was not made by them for a private person, but for a king, or for one the congregation stood in need of:

at his word shall they go out, and at his word shall they come in; go out to war, and return from it, or do any service enjoined them; that is, either at the word of the Lord, or rather at the word of Eleazar the priest, declaring the will of God, which comes to much the same sense; or at the word of Joshua, directed by the high priest, according to the oracle of God; and he being under such direction, the people could never do amiss in obeying him, or be in any fear or danger of being led wrong by him; but he is mentioned in the next clause, as included in those that went out, and came in:

[both] he, and all the children of Israel with him, even all the congregation; which Maimonides c interprets thus, "he", this is the king; "and all the children of Israel", this is the anointed for war, or he whom the congregation hath need of; "and all the congregation", these are the great sanhedrim, or seventy elders.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

And he shall stand before Eleazar the priest ... - Joshua was thus to be inferior to what Moses had been. For Moses had enjoyed the privilege of unrestricted direct contact with God: Joshua, like all future rulers of Israel, was to ask counsel mediately, through the High Priest and those means of inquiring of God wherewith the high priest was entrusted. Such counsel Joshua seems to have omitted to seek when he concluded his hasty treaty with the Gibeonites (Joshua 9:3 ff).

Judgment of Urim - See Exodus 28:30 note.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Numbers 27:21. Eleazar the priest - shall ask counsel for him — Here was a remarkable difference between him and Moses. God talked with Moses face to face; but to Joshua only through the medium of the high priest.
