Commentary on Numbers 24:8
The oracle 'God brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn' grounds Israel's present blessing in past redemption. The Hebrew re'em (wild ox/unicorn) symbolized untamed power. Israel's strength derives not from military might but from God who brought them from Egypt with mighty acts. This past deliverance guarantees future victories: 'he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows.' God's past faithfulness ensures future triumph—a principle Christians claim through Christ's finished work.
