Summary
In Numbers 29, the offerings that the children of Israel were instructed to make throughout the year are described. These offerings included daily, Sabbath, monthly, Passover, Feast of Weeks, Feast of Trumpets, Day of Atonement, and Feast of Tabernacles offerings. The priests were required to sacrifice numerous animals, large quantities of flour, oil, and wine, as well as lambs without blemish. These offerings were repeated annually, highlighting the ongoing need for forgiveness and the anticipation of the coming Messiah.
Moving on to Numbers 31, the king of Moab, Balak, sought to curse the Israelites through the prophet Balaam but was unsuccessful due to God's intervention. However, the Moabites and Midianites devised a plan to seduce the Israelites into idolatry and sexual sin, resulting in God's anger and the subsequent plague. Phinehas intervened by killing an Israelite man and a Midianite woman who committed a particularly heinous sexual sin, which halted the plague. In response, God instructed Moses to take revenge on the Midianites for their actions.
In Revelation 2:14, Jesus referred to the teaching of Balaam, who influenced the Israelites to engage in sin. In Numbers 31, Balaam is killed along with every Midianite man. Moses, recognizing the danger of allowing the women involved in immorality to live among the Israelites, ordered the execution of all women who had been with a man. The male children were also killed to prevent future revenge and to eliminate the influence of Midianite culture.
