The Talking Donkey and Its Prophet, Balaam | 40 – Parashat Balaq
from Perfect Word Torah Portions · host Josiah Geoffrey & Hosea Geoffrey
In this week’s Messianic Jewish Bible study, Josiah and Hosea Geoffrey explore the Torah Portion “Balaq” (Numbers 22:2-25:9), in which the prophet Balaam conspires with Balak the king of Moab to undermine Israel with curses and deceit—until Balaam’s donkey saves his life and rebukes him in a human voice. Why was God angry with Balaam after allowing him to follow Balak? How does a talking donkey point to the wisdom of God? What can we expect to find if we seek the wages of unrighteousness? The brothers cover all these questions and more in this episode.
