Numbers 31:6

So Moses sent them to the war, one thousand from every tribe, with Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest, who was in charge ¹  of the holy articles ²  and the signal trumpets.

Ex 25:9; Nu 10:8,9; Nu 14:44; Nu 25:7-13; Nu 33:20-22; Jos 6:4-6,13-15; 1Sa 4:4,5,17; 1Sa 14:18; 1Sa 23:9; 2Sa 11:11; 2Ch 13:12-15

¹ tn The Hebrew text uses the idiom that these “were in his hand,” meaning that he had the responsibility over them.

² sn It is not clear what articles from the sanctuary were included. Tg. Ps.-J. adds (interpretively) “the Urim and Thummim.”
