BALAK בָּלָ֖ק (Balak) NUMBERS 22:2-25:9

PROPHETS : MICAH 5:6-6:8| GOSPEL : MATTHEW 21:1-11

By Min. Donald H. Garrett

TORAH:

This section is about King Balak trying to get Balaam to curse Israel. However, Balaam only spoke what YaHVaH told him to say. This made Balak mad and threaten Balaam.

There is an interesting prophecy here in the words spoken by Balaam. “I shall see him, but not now, I shall look at him, but it is not near. A star has issued from Jacob and a sceptre-bearer has risen from Israel, and he shall pierce the nobles of Moab and undermine the children of Seth” (Tanach, Num. 24:17). This is a Messianic prophecy about the coming Messiah, we see this referring to Yeshua.
