Compare all
26 aTherefore He raised His hand in an oath against them,
bTo1 overthrow them in the wilderness, 
27 aTo1 overthrow their descendants among the2 nations,
And to scatter them in the lands. 
28 aThey joined themselves also to Baal of Peor,
And ate sacrifices1 made to the dead. 
29 Thus they provoked Him to anger with their deeds,
And the plague broke out among them.
30 aThen Phinehas stood up and intervened,
And the plague was stopped.

Psalms 106:28

They joined themselves also unto Baalpeor - The Vulgate, Septuagint, and others, have Belphegor; the Syriac and Arabic, the idol Phegor, or Phaaur; the ain in the word being pronounced as gh.

Ate the sacrifices or the dead - methim , of dead men. Most of the heathen idols were seen, who had been deified after their death; many of whom had been execrated during their life.
