Torah (1)

The Children of Israel’s enemies choose to engage in spiritual warfare after being unable to defeat Israel with swords in Portion Balak. Yet the Prophet Balam is a huge disappointment after he is unable to fulfill his contract to curse Israel. This is a weird story! Why is it in the Torah at all? This story reminds us that when enemies come against Israel, the God who neither slumbers nor sleeps is keeping watch. Shabbat Shalom!
