Numbers 14:4 And they said one to another: Let us appoint us a captain, and let us return into Egypt.

Captain, instead of Moses, whom they could not bring over to their criminal design, no more than Aaron, Josue, Caleb, etc. (Haydock) --- Some imagine the rebels wanted to choose themselves a king, (Calmet) or even another god. (Drusius) --- Every community acknowledges the necessity of having one at the head. (Worthington)
