Nombres 27:23 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 27:23

And he laid his hands upon him
Jarchi observes, that he did this cheerfully, and did more than he was commanded; for the Lord said to him, "lay thine hand", but he laid both his hands:

and gave him a charge, as the Lord commanded Moses;
( Numbers 27:19 ) , this is a clear proof that Moses was no imposter, since he sought not to aggrandize his family, or serve the interest of that; nor did he in the least repine or murmur that the priesthood was given to his brother Aaron and sons, and now the civil government to his servant of the tribe of Ephraim; and as for his own posterity, they were only common Levites that waited upon the priests.

Nombres 27:23 In-Context

21 Il se présentera devant le sacrificateur Eléazar, qui consultera pour lui le jugement de l'urim devant l'Eternel; et Josué, tous les enfants d'Israël avec lui, et toute l'assemblée, sortiront sur l'ordre d'Eléazar et entreront sur son ordre.

22 Moïse fit ce que l'Eternel lui avait ordonné. Il prit Josué, et il le plaça devant le sacrificateur Eléazar et devant toute l'assemblée.

23 Il posa ses mains sur lui, et lui donna des ordres, comme l'Eternel l'avait dit par Moïse.
