Números 11:27 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 11:27

And there ran a young man
From the camp to the tabernacle, who had heard Eldad and Medad prophesy; which he thought was not right, being done without the knowledge and approbation of Moses, and in a private tent in the tabernacle, not among the elders, but the common people: who this young than was is not material to know; some of the Rabbins, as Jarchi says, affirm he was Gershon the son of Moses; whoever he was, no doubt, it was with a good design, consulting the glory of God and the honour of Moses, and therefore in great haste ran to him with the information:

and told Moses, and said, Eldad and Medad do prophesy in the camp;
who seem by this, to be persons well known, and of some note and figure; since not only the young man could call them by their names, but there needed no other description of them to Moses and those with him.

Números 11:27 In-Context

25 El SEÑOR descendió en la nube y habló con Moisés, y compartió con los setenta ancianos el Espíritu que estaba sobre él. Cuando el Espíritu descansó sobre ellos, se pusieron a profetizar. Pero esto no volvió a repetirse.
26 Dos de los ancianos se habían quedado en el campamento. Uno se llamaba Eldad y el otro Medad. Aunque habían sido elegidos, no acudieron a la Tienda de reunión. Sin embargo, el Espíritu descansó sobre ellos y se pusieron a profetizar dentro del campamento.
27 Entonces un muchacho corrió a contárselo a Moisés:—¡Eldad y Medad están profetizando dentro del campamento!
28 Josué hijo de Nun, uno de los siervos escogidos de Moisés, exclamó:—¡Moisés, señor mío, deténlos!
29 Pero Moisés le respondió:—¿Estás celoso por mí? ¡Cómo quisiera que todo el pueblo del SEÑOR profetizara, y que el SEÑOR pusiera su Espíritu en todos ellos!
