Numbers Capítulo 24 1 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
Numbers Capítulo 24 2 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
2. he saw Israel abiding in his tents according to their tribes--that is, in the orderly distribution of the camp
(Nu 2:1-34).
the spirit of God came upon him--Before the regular ministry of the prophets was instituted, God made use of various persons as the instruments through whom He revealed His will, and Balaam was one of these
(De 23:5).
Numbers Capítulo 24 3 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
3. the man whose eyes are open--that is, a seer
(1Sa 9:9),
a prophet, to whom the visioned future was disclosed--sometimes when falling into a sleep
(Ge 15:12-15),
frequently into "a trance."
Numbers Capítulo 24 5 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
5-7. How goodly are thy tents, . . . O Israel!--a fine burst of admiration, expressed in highly poetical strains. All travellers describe the beauty which the circular area of Bedouin tents impart to the desert. How impressive, then, must have been the view, as seen from the heights of Abarim, of the immense camp of Israel extended over the subjacent plains.
Numbers Capítulo 24 6 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
6. As the valleys--Hebrew, "brooks," the watercourses of the mountains.
lign aloes--an aromatic shrub on the banks of his native Euphrates, the conical form of which suggested an apt resemblance to a tent. The redundant imagery of these verses depicts the humble origin, rapid progress, and prosperity of Israel.
Numbers Capítulo 24 7 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
7. his king shall be higher than Agag--The Amalekites were then the most powerful of all the desert tribes, and "Agag" a title common to their kings.
Numbers Capítulo 24 10 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
10-14. Balak's anger was kindled against Balaam, and he smote his hands together--The "smiting of the hands together" is, among Oriental people, an indication of the most violent rage (see
Eze 21:17; 22:13)
and ignominious dismissal.
Numbers Capítulo 24 15 Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible
15. he took his parable--or prophecy, uttered in a poetical style.
Nu 24:1-25.
BALAAM FORETELLS ISRAEL'S HAPPINESS.
1. to seek for--that is, to use enchantments. His experience on the two former occasions
[Nu 23:3, 15]
had taught him that these superstitious accompaniments of his worship were useless, and therefore he now simply looked towards the camp of Israel, either with a secret design to curse them, or to await the divine afflatus.
