Contextual Overview

¹⁵ Moses replied, ¹⁶ "You are the Lord God, and you know what is in everyone's heart. So I ask you to appoint a leader for Israel. ¹⁷ Your people need someone to lead them into battle, or else they will be like sheep wandering around without a shepherd." ¹⁸ The Lord answered, "Joshua son of Nun can do the job.

Appoint Joshua as their new leader ²⁰ and tell them they must now obey him, just as they obey you. ²¹ But Joshua must depend on Eleazar to find out from me what I want him to do as he leads Israel into battle." ²² Moses followed the Lord 's instructions and took Joshua to Eleazar and the people, ²³ then he placed his hands on Joshua and appointed him Israel's leader.
