18. So the Lord said to Moses, “Take Joshua, son of Nun, a man who has the Spirit, and place your hand on him.
19. Make him stand in front of the priest Eleazar and the whole community, and give him his instructions in their presence.
20. Give him some of your authority so that the whole community of Israel will obey him.
21. He will stand in front of the priest Eleazar, who will use the Urim to make decisions in the Lord’s presence. At his command Joshua and the whole community of Israel will go into battle. And at his command they will return.”
