Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 24. - Moses went out, i.e., out of the tabernacle. It is not stated that he went into the tabernacle to bring his complaint before the Lord, but the narrative obviously implies that he did (see on Numbers 7:89).

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(24) And Moses went out . . . --i.e., as it should seem, from the tabernacle of the congregation, where he had been conversing with God.Round about the tabernacle.--This does not necessarily imply that the seventy men were placed so that they surrounded the whole of the tent of meeting. Comp. Exodus 7:24, where the word means on both sides of the river; also Job 29:5, where the same word is rendered about.
