And thou shalt put some of thine honour upon him, that all the congregation of the children of Israel may be obedient.

Put some of thine honour upon him. In the whole history of Israel there arose no prophet or ruler in all respects like unto Moses until the Messiah appeared, whose glory eclipsed all. But Joshua was honoured and qualified in an eminent degree through the special service of the high priest, who asked counsel for him after the judgement of Urim before the Lord.

That all the congregation of ... Israel may be obedient - literally, may hear.
