Balak, king of Moav, realized that his nation was defiled and had its
source in impurity. He wanted to avenge his illegitimate origins by
bringing Bnei Yisrael, the nation of purity and holiness, to sin in this
abominable manner.

“He sent messengers to Bilaam son of Beor to
Petor, which is by the River of the land of the

members of his people, to summon him, saying:
Behold! a people has come out of Egypt,
behold! it has covered the surface of the earth
and it sits opposite me”
(Bamidbar 22:5)

How could Bilaam’s donkey see something which was kept from him,
great prophet that he was? Bilaam never sought ways to improve through
his power of prophecy. He preferred to cleave to tumah and wickedness. # 26347-EYAL-6BOOKS - 26347-Bamidbar-EYAL | 15 - B | 18-08-19 | 13:48:26 | SR:-- | Black 26347-EYAL-6BOOKS - 26347-Bamidbar-EYAL | 15 - B | 18-08-19 | 13:48:26 | SR:-- | Cyan 26347-EYAL-6BOOKS - 26347-Bam
