Balaam Prophesies Again

23:18 Balaam ¹  uttered ²  his oracle, and said,

“Rise up, ³  Balak, and hear;

Listen to me, son of Zippor:

Bilangan 31:2

31:2 “Exact vengeance ⁴  for the Israelites on the Midianites ⁵  – after that you will be gathered to your people.” ⁶ 

Bilangan 36:10

36:10 As the Lord had commanded Moses, so the daughters of Zelophehad did.

[23:18]  ¹ tn Heb “he.” The antecedent has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[23:18]  ² tn Heb “took up.”

[23:18]  ³ tn The verb probably means “pay attention” in this verse.

[31:2]  ⁴ tn The imperative is followed by its cognate accusative to stress this vengeance. The Midianites had attempted to destroy Israel with their corrupt pagan practices, and now will be judged. The accounts indicate that the effort by Midian was calculated and evil.

[31:2]  ⁵ sn The war was commanded by the Lord and was to be divine vengeance on the Midianites. So it was holy war. No Israelites then could take spoils in this – it was not a time for plunder and aggrandizement. It was part of the judgment of God upon those who would destroy or pervert his plan and his people.

[31:2]  ⁶ sn This would be the last major enterprise that Moses would have to undertake. He would soon die and “be gathered to his people” as Aaron was.
