Commentary on Numbers 25:9
The plague killed 24,000 before Phinehas's action stopped it. The death toll demonstrates the corporate consequences of individual and communal sin. One person's zeal for God ended what many people's sin had begun. This teaches both the danger of tolerating sin and the power of one righteous person's decisive action for God's honor.
