“But there remained two of the men in the camp, the name of the one was Eldad, and the name of the other Medad: and the spirit rested upon them; and they were of them that were written, but went not out unto the tabernacle: and they prophesied in the camp.”
Two men remained in the camp, one named Eldad and the other named Medad, and the spirit rested on them; they were among those registered, but they had not gone out to the tent of meeting, and they prophesied in the camp — two elders (Eldad and Medad) did not join the gathering at the tent yet received the spirit and prophesied in the camp. Their receipt of the spirit apart from the tent-gathering suggests that God's spirit-distribution is comprehensive: wherever the seventy were, the spirit rested on them.
