Contextual Overview
1 And the sons of Israel pulled up stakes and camped on the plains of Moab, beyond the Jordan, by Jericho. 2 And Balak the son of Zippor saw all that Israel had done to the Amorites. 3 And Moab greatly feared because of the people, for it was many. And Moab was vexed by the presence of the sons of Israel. 4 And Moab said to the elders of Midian, Now this assembly is licking up all that is around us, as the ox licks up the grass of the field. And Balak the son of Zippor was king of Moab at that time. 5 And he sent messengers to Balaam the son of Beor, to Pethor which is beside the River of the land of the sons of his people, to call for him, saying, Behold! A people has come out of Egypt. Behold! it has covered the eye of the earth, and it is sitting next to me. 6 And now please come, curse this people for me, for it is stronger than I. Perhaps I will prevail, that we may strike them, that I may drive them out from the land. For I know that whoever you bless is blessed, and whoever you curse is cursed. 7 And the elders of Moab and the elders of Midian left with the rewards of the seer in their hand. And they came to Balaam and spoke the words of Balak to him. 8 And he said to them, Stay here tonight, and I will bring back word to you, even as Jehovah may speak to me. And the leaders of Moab stayed with Balaam. 9 And God came to Balaam and said, Who are these men with you? 10 And Balaam said to God, Balak the son of Zippor king of Moab has sent to me,

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And God came unto Balaam,.... In a dream very probably, as he did to Abimelech and Laban, Genesis 20:3:
and said, what men are these with thee? who lodged with him that night. This he said, not as ignorant who they were, or from whence they came, or what they came about; but in order to lead on to a discourse with Balaam, and to have from him the account of the men, and their business, and to try his fidelity in relating the affair.
