Commentary on Numbers 24:7
Balaam prophesies: 'his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted.' This Messianic prophecy points beyond immediate context to Israel's ultimate King. 'Agag' was Amalekite royal title (like Pharaoh for Egypt), representing Israel's enemies. The promise that Israel's king would surpass all enemy kings finds partial fulfillment in David and Solomon but ultimate fulfillment in Christ, the King of kings (Rev 19:16). The 'exalted kingdom' prophesies Christ's eternal reign (Dan 2:44, Luke 1:32-33). Even unwilling prophet Balaam declared Messiah's supremacy over all opposition.
