Commentary on Numbers 22:34
Balaam confesses to the angel 'I have sinned; for I knew not that thou stoodest in the way against me: now therefore, if it displease thee, I will get me back again.' The conditional 'if it displease thee' reveals incomplete repentance—true contrition doesn't offer to obey only if God still objects. Balaam sought permission to continue despite acknowledging sin, showing how confession without heart change manipulates grace.
