Joshua 24:10 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

I would not hearken unto Balaam, who hereby appears to have desired of God leave to curse Israel; and therefore it is not strange that God, who permitted him simply to go, was highly angry with him for going with so wicked an intent, Numbers 22:20,22,32. Out of his hand, i.e. from Balak's malicious design against you.

Joshua 24:10

10 But I would not hearken unto Balaam; therefore he blessed you still: so I delivered you out of his hand.
