Contextual Overview

13Then Balak said to him, “Please come with me to another place where you can see them. You will only see the outskirts of their camp; you won’t see all of them. From there, put a curse on them for me.” 14So Balak took him to Lookout Field on top of Pisgah, built seven altars, and offered a bull and a ram on each altar. 15Balaam said to Balak, “Stay here by your burnt offering while I seek the Lord over there.” 16The Lord met with Balaam and put a message in his mouth. Then he said, “Return to Balak and say what I tell you.” 17So he returned to Balak, who was standing there by his burnt offering with the officials of Moab. Balak asked him, “What did the Lord say?” 18Balaam proclaimed his poem: 19God is not a man, that he might lie,or a son of man, that he might change his mind.Does he speak and not act,or promise and not fulfill? 20I have indeed received a command to bless;since he has blessed, I cannot change it. 21He considers no disaster for Jacob;he sees no trouble for Israel.The Lord their God is with them,and there is rejoicing over the King among them. 22God brought them out of Egypt;he is like the horns of a wild ox for them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And Balak did as Balaam had said,.... Though the sacrifices were expensive, he did not grudge them; he spared no cost to gain his point, though he now could have but little hope of it: and offered a bullock and a ram on every altar; as he had done before, Numbers 23:2.
