THREE times did the prophet Balaam endeavor tooblige King Balak by cursing Israel; but eachtime the words that flowed from him were ofpraise and blessing. At length the prophetic inspirationentirely mastered his wicked will. Sweeping aside thewishes of Balak and his people, Balaam chanted a greatprophecy as to the future of the Hebrews.

Many Israelites fell into the snare; idolatryspread among them. So bold at length did the idolatersbecome, that a prince of the house of Simeon paraded hisevil practices even before the eyes of Moses himself. Then came the punishment, God sent another plagueto strike down those who had deserted Him; and Phinehas,a son of the high priest Eleazar, seized a spear and beforeall the congregation slew th
