Clarke's Numbers 11:27 Bible Commentary
Eldad and Medad do prophesy, etc. -
Eldad, they said, and Medad there,
Irregularly bold,
By Moses uncommission'd, dare
A separate meeting hold!
And still whom none but heaven will own.
Men whom the world decry,
Men authorized by God alone,
Presume to prophesy!
Wesley's Numbers 11:27 Bible Commentary
11:27 Told Moses - Fearing lest his authority should be diminished by their prophesying; and thereby taking authority to themselves without his consent.
