Balaam (/ˈbeɪlæm/;[1] Hebrew: בִּלְעָם, Standard Bīlʻam Tiberian Bīlʻām) is a diviner in the Torah (Pentateuch) whose story begins in Chapter 22 of the Book of Numbers (Numbers 22).

Every ancient reference to Balaam considers him a non-Israelite, a prophet, and the son of Beor.[2] King Balak of Moab offered him money to curse Israel (Numbers 22–24), but Balaam blessed the Israelites instead as dictated by God. Nevertheless, he is reviled as a "wicked man" in both the Torah and the New Testament (2 Peter 2:15, Jude 1:11, Revelation 2:14).

According to the Book of Revelation (Revelation 2:14), Balaam told King Balak how to get the Israelites to commit sin by enticing them with sexual immorality and food sacrificed to idols. The Israelites fell into transgression due to these traps and God sent a deadly plague to them as a result (Numbers 31:16).

> The ladies there are pure and sweet not like where you are from, Palestine? Just guessing….

Palestine? looks like I found the jew...

You're still dodging the question btw...

>Why are you that mad, at that "Balaam" goy? While all he did in the end, was to tell how to screw the jews... And they got screwed as a result... That's weird for a gentile to get mad at such a thing, don't you think? I think it's weird...

Care to answer?
