Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(14) Balaam refuseth to come with us.--It does not appear that Balaam had told the messengers of Balak the ground of the Divine prohibition; viz., "for they are blessed." Balak accordingly entertained the hope that stronger inducements would prevail with Balaam.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewAnd the princesשָׂרֵ֣י (śā·rê)Noun - masculine plural constructStrong's 8269: Chieftain, chief, ruler, official, captain, princeof Moabמוֹאָ֔ב (mō·w·’āḇ)Noun - proper - feminine singularStrong's 4124: Moab -- a son of Lot,also his descendants and the territory where they settledarose,וַיָּק֙וּמוּ֙ (way·yā·qū·mū)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine pluralStrong's 6965: To arise, stand up, standreturnedוַיָּבֹ֖אוּ (way·yā·ḇō·’ū)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine pluralStrong's 935: To come in, come, go in, gotoאֶל־ (’el-)PrepositionStrong's 413: Near, with, among, toBalak,בָּלָ֑ק (bā·lāq)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 1111: Balak -- 'devastator', a Moabite kingand said,וַיֹּ֣אמְר֔וּ (way·yō·mə·rū)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine pluralStrong's 559: To utter, say“Balaamבִּלְעָ֖ם (bil·‘ām)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 1109: Balaam -- a prophetrefusedמֵאֵ֥ן (mê·’ên)Verb - Piel - Perfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 3985: To refuseto comeהֲלֹ֥ךְ (hă·lōḵ)Verb - Qal - Infinitive constructStrong's 1980: To go, come, walkwith us.”עִמָּֽנוּ׃ (‘im·mā·nū)Preposition | first person common pluralStrong's 5973: With, equally withJump to PreviousBalaam Balak Chiefs Leaders Moab Moabite Refused Refuses Refuseth Refusing Rise Rose
