Commentary on Numbers 22:10

Balaam's response to God identifies Balak and his request: 'Behold, there is a people come out from Egypt' and they 'cover the face of the earth.' This description views Israel from Moab's terrified perspective—a vast, unstoppable multitude. Balaam's phrase 'come out from Egypt' unwittingly acknowledges God's redemptive work in the Exodus. His recitation of Balak's request for cursing reveals that he understands he's being hired to spiritually assault God's chosen people. This knowledge makes his initial willingness to go all the more culpable.
