So they only repent when the fiery serpents go after them....

I wonder if there was the equivalent of Excedrin for Moses, cuz he sure must'a gotten some kinda' headaches from da Israelites....

they're remindin' me of that verse in James that speaks of double minded-ness

Thank you. That was very helpful.

Your welcome, glad it was helpful. I find it interesting that Aaron willing accepted his fate. I pray I would have as much faith in God as Aaron did if HRe asked me to give my life.

 

[brinny]

yes, that is what I was thinkin'.....

a little confusing here with verses 20 and 22.....God tells Balaam to go with these men and then God's anger is kindled because Balaam goes with the men.

Interesting too, where Balaam's donkey actually speaks and the Angel of the Lord was blocking Balaam's path...and it's phenomenal that Balaam's donkey saved Balaam's like cuz the Angel of the Lord was surely goin' to slay him....

Again, you went to the heart of the message brinny! This helped me to understand why God was displeased. It was what was in his heart but read it's a good read. I really enjoy Pastor David's commentaries.

Good grief! Balak was gonna try to "talk Balaam into cursing Israel", wasn't he? He didn't think God meant what He said the first time?

I have a saying I use "I'd rather hear the ugly truth to a pretty lie". Seems to me Balak wanted to hear a pretty lie - The devil tells pretty lies, what we want to hear. The Lord tells the sometimes ugly truth but it's always the truth.
I wonder if Balak will wise up?!

Good quote, and it's the truth, amen.....
