Numbers 22:32 - Forerunner Commentary

Numbers 22:32

30 ^aSo the donkey said to Balaam, “Am I not your donkey on which you have ridden, ever since I became yours, to this day? Was I ever¹ disposed to do this to you?” And he said, “No.”

31 Then the Lord ^aopened Balaam’s eyes, and he saw the Angel of the Lord standing in the way with His drawn sword in His hand; and he bowed his head and fell flat on his face.

32 And the Angel of the Lord said to him, “Why have you struck your donkey these three times? Behold, I have come out¹ to stand against you, because your way is ^aperverse before Me.

33 The donkey saw Me and turned aside from Me these three times. If she had not turned aside from Me, surely I would also have killed you by now, and let her live.”

34 And Balaam said to the Angel of the Lord, ^a“I have sinned, for I did not know You stood in the way against me. Now therefore, if it¹ displeases You, I will turn back.”

35 Then the Angel of the Lord said to Balaam, “Go with the men, ^abut only the word that I speak to you, that you shall speak.” So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.
