Jamieson-Fausset-Brown on Numbers 23:10

COM commentary-section · status:draft · license:PD

10. Who can count the dust of Jacob? —an Oriental hyperbole for a very populous nation, as Jacob's posterity was promised to be ( Genesis 13:16 ; Genesis 28:14 ). the number of the fourth part of Israel —that is, the camp consisted of four divisions; every one of these parts was formidable in numbers. Let me die the death of the righteous — Hebrew, "of Jeshurun"; or, the Israelites. The meaning is: they are a people happy, above all others, not only in life, but at death, from their knowledge of the true God, and their hope through His grace. Balaam is a representative of a large class in the world, who express a wish for the blessedness which Christ has promised to His people but are averse to imitate the mind that was in Him. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verse-13" class="com-number"
