Números 23:28 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 23:28

And Balak brought Balaam to the top of Peor
The name of an high mountain in Moab, so called from a gap or opening in it; here the idol Baal was worshipped, and from hence had the name of Baalpeor, ( Numbers 25:3 ) and here, very probably, was a temple built to the honour of him, called Bethpeor, the house or temple of Baalpeor, ( Deuteronomy 34:6 ) ,

that looketh towards Jeshimon;
as Pisgah also did, and very likely it was not far from it, since from thence they came hither, ( Numbers 23:14 ) ( 21:20 ) . Jeshimon is the same with Bethjesimoth, and so the Targum of Jonathan here calls it, a part of the plains of Moab, where Israel lay encamped, ( Numbers 33:49 ) so that from hence Balaam could have a full view of them.

Números 23:28 In-Context

26 Y Balaam respondi贸, y dijo a Balac: 驴No te he dicho que todo lo que el SE脩OR me dijere, aquello tengo de hacer?
27 Y dijo Balac a Balaam: Te ruego que vengas, te llevar茅 a otro lugar; por ventura parecer谩 recto a los ojos de Dios que desde all铆 me lo maldigas.
28 Y Balac llev贸 a Balaam a la cumbre de Peor, que mira hacia Jesim贸n.
29 Entonces Balaam dijo a Balac: Edif铆came aqu铆 siete altares, y prep谩rame aqu铆 siete becerros y siete carneros.
30 Y Balac hizo como Balaam le dijo; y ofreci贸 un becerro y un carnero en cada altar.
