Commentary on Numbers 25:1
Israel 'began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab' at Shittim, just before entering Canaan. This sexual immorality was simultaneously spiritual adultery—the Moabite women drew Israelite men into idolatrous worship (verse 2). Sexual sin and idolatry intertwine throughout Scripture; physical unfaithfulness expresses and enables spiritual unfaithfulness.
