The king of Moav behaved illogically in refusing Am Yisrael entry into
his land. He knew they were forbidden from waging war with his nation.
He sought the advice of Bilaam the rasha as to how to eliminate this thorn
in his side. And Bilaam, for his part, also acted most illogically. He knew
that Hashem would never allow him to curse His nation. Nevertheless, that
was what he set out to do. The behavior of these two wicked men should
provide us with a lesson in the importance of calculating our deeds.
“This is the decree of the Torah, which Hashem
has commanded, saying”
(Bamidbar 19:2)
“This is the teaching regarding a man if he will
die in a tent”
(ibid. vs. 14)
