Balaam also the son of Beor, the soothsayer, did the children of Israel slay with the sword among them that were slain by them.
Ver. 22. Balaam also the son of Beor.] The spellman of Satan: though by his words he might seem a friend to Israel, yet was he worthily cut off by them for his wicked counsel. So shall all such perish as "turn aside, like Balaam, unto their crooked ways: but peace shall be upon Israel." Psa 125:5 See Judges 1:11 .
