Commentary on Numbers 23:2
The record 'Balak did as Balaam had spoken; and Balak and Balaam offered on every altar a bullock and a ram' shows Balak's compliance and participation in the ritual. Both king and prophet engaged in the sacrificial ritual, uniting political and spiritual power in common purpose against Israel. Yet their joint effort would prove futile against God's will. This teaches that human alliances, no matter how powerful or religiously elaborate, cannot thwart divine purposes. 'There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD' (Proverbs 21:30).
