Contextual Overview

²⁴ Now on the journey, at the night's resting-place, the Lord came in his way and would have put him to death. ²⁵ Then Zipporah took a sharp stone, and cutting off the skin of her son's private parts, and touching his feet with it, she said, Truly you are a husband of blood to me. ²⁶ So he let him go. Then she said, You are a husband of blood because of the circumcision. ²⁷ And the Lord said to Aaron, Go into the waste land and you will see Moses. So he went and came across Moses at the mountain of God, and gave him a kiss. ²⁸ And Moses gave Aaron an account of all the words of the Lord which he had sent him to say, and of all the signs which he had given him orders to do. ²⁹ Then Moses and Aaron went and got together all the chiefs of the children of Israel: ³⁰ And Aaron said to them all the words the Lord had said to Moses, and did the signs before all the people. ³¹ And the people had faith in them; and hearing that the Lord had taken up the cause of the children of Israel and had seen their troubles, with bent heads they gave him worship.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Moses and Aaron went,.... Set forward for Egypt: and being come thither,

gathered together all the elders of the children of Israel; the heads of tribes and families, as many as they could conveniently get together in one place; probably in the metropolis of the kingdom, where Pharaoh's palace was, since we quickly hear of their going in to him.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

All the elders - The Israelites retained their own national organization; their affairs were administered by their own elders, who called a public assembly Exodus 4:31 to hear the message brought by Moses and Aaron.
