Numbers 11:24,25 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

Reader! do not forget that the same Almighty GOD is now frequently descending by the influences of his HOLY SPIRIT on the minds of his people, for their sanctification; for this is among the ascension gifts of the LORD JESUS. John 14:16-17. Neither overlook the evidence this passage, among others which occur in the Bible to the same effect, carries with it of the agency of the HOLY GHOST, 1 Samuel 10:6.

Numbers 11:24-25

24 And Moses went out, and told the people the words of the LORD, and gathered the seventy men of the elders of the people, and set them round about the tabernacle.

25 And the LORD came down in a cloud, and spake unto him, and took of the spirit that was upon him, and gave it unto the seventy elders: and it came to pass, that, when the spirit rested upon them, they prophesied, and did not cease.
