Balak

פָּרָשַׁת בָּלָק

Numbers 22:2 – 25:9

Balak tells the story of the Moabite king Balak, who hires Balaam to curse the Israelites. Balaam’s donkey speaks along the way, and Balaam ends up blessing the people of Israel. The portion ends with a story about Israelite men sinning with Moabite women and the stabbing of an Israelite and a Midianite.
