Numbers 23:14

Context

23:14 So Balak brought Balaam 2  to the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, 3  where 4  he built seven altars and offered a bull and a ram on each altar.

Numbers 23:29

Context
23:29 Then Balaam said to Balak, “Build seven altars here for me, and prepare seven bulls and seven rams.”

1 sn The first part of Balaam’s activity ends in disaster for Balak – he blesses Israel. The chapter falls into four units: the first prophecy (vv. 1-10), the relocation (vv. 11-17), the second prophecy (vv. 18-24), and a further location (vv. 25-30).

2 tn Heb “he brought him”; the referents (Balak and Balaam) have been specified in the translation for clarity.

3 tn Some scholars do not translate this word as “Pisgah,” but rather as a “lookout post” or an “elevated place.”

4 tn Heb “and he built.”
