Comentario sobre Números 31:13
וַיֵּ֨צְא֜וּ מֹשֶׁ֨ה וְאֶלְעָזָ֧ר הַכֹּהֵ֛ן וְכָל־נְשִׂיאֵ֥י הָעֵדָ֖ה לִקְרָאתָ֑ם אֶל־מִח֖וּץ לַֽמַּחֲנֶֽה׃
Y salieron Moisés y Eleazar el sacerdote, y todos los príncipes de la congregación, á recibirlos fuera del campo.

אל מחוץ למחנה, so that the returning soldiers would not immediately enter the camp, seeing they had become contaminated through contact with dead Midianites.

Haamek Davar on Numbers
They went out to show honor to the army, as is accustomed even today—to give honor to those returning from a war. However, a king does not normally give honor to his subjects in person, and that is why the Sages said: This informs you of Moshe’s humility.
