The story of Balaam and Balak has been too fruitful to abandon. To continue I’ll introduce the “24,000” (Numbers 25:1-5 ESV).

While Israel lived in Shittim, the people began to whore with the daughters of Moab. These invited the people to the sacrifices of their gods (‘ĕlōhîm, אֱלֹהֵיהֶן; Septuagint: τῶν εἰδώλων αὐτῶν), and the people ate and bowed down to their gods (‘ĕlōhîm, לֵאלֹהֵיהֶן; Septuagint: τοῖς εἰδώλοις αὐτῶν). So Israel yoked himself to Baal of Peor. And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel. And the Lord said to Moses, “Take all the chiefs of the people and hang them in the sun before the Lord, that the fierce anger of the Lord may turn away from Israel.” And Moses said to the judges of Israel, “Each of you kill those of his men who have yoked themselves to Baal of Peor.”

The apparent difference between what the Lord said to Moses and what Moses said to the judges of Israel deserves some consideration. For the moment, however, I’ll stay focused on the introduction of the “24,000” (Numbers 25:9 ESV).

Nevertheless, those who died by the plague (magēp̄â, בַּמַּגֵּפָה; Septuagint: τῇ πληγῇ) were twenty-four thousand.

After spending so much time¹ recounting the Lord’s patience with two Gentiles—the prophet Balaam and Balak king of Moab—the Lord’s treatment of 24,000 of those whom Paul would later describe as a cultivated olive tree seems abrupt and precipitous. That has more to do with my story-telling than the Lord’s patience. So I’ll spend some time here reviewing his patience with the 24,000 (Exodus 9:13-26 ESV).

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Rise up early in the morning and present yourself before Pharaoh and say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord, the God of the Hebrews, “Let my people go, that they may serve me. For this time I will send all my plagues (magēp̄â, מַגֵּפֹתַי; Septuagint: τὰ συναντήματά μου) on you yourself, and on your servants and your people, so that you may know that there is none like me in all the earth [Table]. For by now I could have put out my hand and struck you and your people with pestilence (deḇer, בַּדָּבֶר; Septuagint: θανάτῳ or θανατώσω), and you would have been cut off from the earth [Table]. But for this purpose I have raised you up, to show you my power, so that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth [Table]. You are still exalting yourself against my people and will not let them go. Behold, about this time tomorrow I will cause very heavy hail to fall, such as never has been in Egypt from the day it was founded until now. Now therefore send, get your livestock and all that you have in the field into safe shelter, for every man and beast that is in the field and is not brought home will die when the hail falls on them.”’” Then whoever feared the word of the Lord among the servants of Pharaoh hurried his slaves and his livestock into the houses [Table], but whoever did not pay attention to the word of the Lord left his slaves and his livestock in the field [Table].

I began here because it is the first occurrence of the noun מַגֵּפָה (magēp̄â) in the Masoretic text (ESV: my plagues). There were six other “plagues” preceding this that the 24,000 certainly heard about, and may have witnessed personally while still in Egypt (Exodus 9:22-26 ESV).

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Stretch out your hand toward heaven, so that there may be hail in all the land of Egypt, on man and beast and every plant of the field, in the land of Egypt.” Then Moses stretched out his staff toward heaven, and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and fire ran down to the earth. And the Lord rained hail upon the land of Egypt. There was hail and fire flashing continually in the midst of the hail, very heavy hail, such as had never been in all the land of Egypt since it became a nation. The hail struck down everything that was in the field in all the land of Egypt, both man and beast. And the hail struck down every plant of the field and broke every tree of the field. Only in the land of Goshen, where the people of Israel were, was there no hail.

The “plague” that killed the 24,000 was the last event described in Numbers before the second census (Numbers 26:63-65 ESV):

These were those listed by Moses and Eleazar the priest, who listed the people of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho. But among these there was not one of those listed by Moses and Aaron the priest, who had listed the people of Israel in the wilderness of Sinai (Numbers 1:1-46). For the Lord had said of them, “They shall die in the wilderness” (Numbers 13:1-14:45) Not one of them was left, except Caleb the son of Jephunneh and Joshua the son of Nun.

My own bias leads me to suspect that the young would be more likely to fall prey to the daughters of Moab, but that bias is shaped by my own experience of a blessed life, knowing the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom [He has] sent² through his indwelling Holy Spirit and the Bible. The juxtaposition of events recounted in Numbers 25 and 26 favors identifying the 24,000 as the last of those cursed to die in the wilderness, witnesses of the final “plague” in Egypt which became the Passover celebration in Israel (Exodus 11:4-10 ESV).

So Moses said, “Thus says the Lord: ‘About midnight I will go out in the midst of Egypt, and every firstborn in the land of Egypt shall die, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sits on his throne, even to the firstborn of the slave girl who is behind the handmill, and all the firstborn of the cattle. There shall be a great cry throughout all the land of Egypt, such as there has never been, nor ever will be again. But not a dog shall growl against any of the people of Israel, either man or beast, that you may know that the Lord makes a distinction (pālâ, יַפְלֶה; Septuagint: παραδοξάσει, a form of παραδοξάζω) between Egypt and Israel.’ And all these your servants shall come down to me and bow down to me, saying, ‘Get out, you and all the people who follow you.’ And after that I will go out.” And he went out from Pharaoh in hot anger. Then the Lord said to Moses, “Pharaoh will not listen to you, that my wonders may be multiplied in the land of Egypt.”

Moses and Aaron did all these wonders before Pharaoh, and the Lord hardened (ḥāzaq, וַיְחַזֵּק; Septuagint: ἐσκλήρυνεν, a form of σκληρύνω) Pharaoh’s heart, and he did not let the people of Israel go out of his land.

Paul referred to this hardening, describing God’s purpose of election, making a distinction between the children of the promise (the children of God) and the children of the flesh. He wrote of his own concern for so many of his own people who had rejected the Lord’s salvation through Jesus the Christ (Romans 9:6-23 ESV).

But it is not as though the word of God has failed. For not all who are descended from Israel belong to Israel, and not all are children of Abraham because they are his offspring, but “Through Isaac shall your offspring be named.”³ This means that it is not the children of the flesh who are the children of God, but the children of the promise are counted as offspring. For this is what the promise said: “About this time next year I will return, and Sarah shall have a son”⁴ (Genesis 18:1-15). And not only so, but also when Rebekah had conceived children by one man, our forefather Isaac, though they were not yet born and had done nothing either good or bad—in order that God’s purpose of election might continue, not because of works but because of him who calls—she was told, “The older will serve the younger”⁵ (Genesis 25:1-28) [Table]. As it is written, “Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated.”⁶

What shall we say then? Is there injustice on God’s part? By no means! For he says to Moses, “I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”⁷ So then it depends not on human will or exertion, but on God, who has mercy [Table]. For the Scripture says to Pharaoh, “For this very purpose I have raised you up, that I might show my power in you, and that my name might be proclaimed in all the earth.”⁸ So then he has mercy on whomever he wills (θέλει, a form of θέλω), and he hardens (σκληρύνει, another form of σκληρύνω) whomever he wills (θέλει, a form of θέλω).

You will say to me then, “Why does he still find fault? For who can resist his will (βουλήματι, a form of βούλημα)?” [Table] But who are you, O man, to answer back to God? Will what is molded say to its molder, “Why have you made me like this?”⁹ Has the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one vessel for honorable use and another for dishonorable use? What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience vessels of wrath prepared for destruction, in order to make known the riches of his glory for vessels of mercy, which he has prepared beforehand for glory—

Who are the vessels of mercy God has chosen in order to make known the riches of his glory? In the immediate context Paul continued, even us whom he has called, not from the Jews only but also from the Gentiles,¹⁰ yet in the broader context of his concern for my brothers, my kinsmen according to the flesh¹¹ he concluded: God has consigned all to disobedience (ἀπείθειαν, a form of ἀπείθεια), that he may have mercy on all (τοὺς πάντας).¹² As Peter wrote: The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing (βουλόμενος, a participle of βούλομαι) that any should perish, but that all (πάντας, a form of πᾶς) should reach repentance.¹³

Jesus said (John 6:44-46; 12:31-33 ESV):

“No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him. And I will raise him up on the last day [Table]. It is written in the Prophets, ‘And they will all (πάντες, a form of πᾶς) be taught by God.’¹⁴ Everyone (πᾶς) who has heard and learned from the Father [e.g., all (πάντες, a form of πᾶς) will…be taught by God] comes to me [Table]—not that anyone has seen (ἑώρακέν, a form of ὁράω) the Father except he who is from God; he has seen (ἑώρακεν, a form of ὁράω) the Father.

“Now is the judgment of this world; now will the ruler of this world be cast out. And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself” (πάντας ἑλκύσω πρὸς ἐμαυτόν). He said this to show by what kind of death he was going to die [Table].

And so, Jesus—firstborn of Mary, a daughter of Israel through David [see table below], and the Holy Spirit—died on a Roman cross,¹⁵ rejected by most of the chosen people of God his Father. The Lord said to Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt (Exodus 12:1-14 ESV):

“This month shall be for you the beginning of months. It shall be the first month of the year for you. Tell all the congregation of Israel that on the tenth day of this month every man shall take a lamb according to their fathers’ houses, a lamb for a household. And if the household is too small for a lamb, then he and his nearest neighbor shall take according to the number of persons; according to what each can eat you shall make your count for the lamb. Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male a year old. You may take it from the sheep or from the goats, and you shall keep it until the fourteenth day of this month, when the whole assembly of the congregation of Israel shall kill their lambs at twilight [Table].

“Then they shall take some of the blood and put it on the two doorposts and the lintel of the houses in which they eat it. They shall eat the flesh that night, roasted on the fire; with unleavened bread and bitter herbs they shall eat it. Do not eat any of it raw or boiled in water, but roasted, its head with its legs and its inner parts. And you shall let none of it remain until the morning [Septuagint: and you shall not break a bone of it (NETS); and a bone of it ye shall not break (English Elpenor)]; anything that remains until the morning you shall burn. In this manner you shall eat it: with your belt fastened, your sandals on your feet, and your staff in your hand. And you shall eat it in haste. It is the Lord’s Passover. For I will pass through the land of Egypt that night, and I will strike all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and on all the gods (‘ĕlōhîm, אֱלֹהֵי; Septuagint: τοῖς θεοῖς) of Egypt I will execute judgments: I am the Lord. The blood shall be a sign for you, on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague will befall you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt.

“This day shall be for you a memorial day, and you shall keep it as a feast to the Lord; throughout your generations, as a statute forever, you shall keep it as a feast [Table].

And Paul wrote (1 Corinthians 5:6-8 ESV):

Your boasting is not good (καλὸν, a form of καλός; beautiful). Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the whole lump? Cleanse out the old leaven that you may be a new lump, as you really are unleavened. For Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed [Table]. Let us therefore celebrate the festival, not with the old leaven, the leaven of malice and evil, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth.

And it happened as the Lord said (Exodus 12:28-32 ESV):

Then the people of Israel went and did so; as the Lord had commanded Moses and Aaron, so they did.

At midnight the Lord struck down all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, from the firstborn of Pharaoh who sat on his throne to the firstborn of the captive who was in the dungeon, and all the firstborn of the livestock. And Pharaoh rose up in the night, he and all his servants and all the Egyptians. And there was a great cry in Egypt, for there was not a house where someone was not dead. Then he summoned Moses and Aaron by night and said, “Up, go out from among my people, both you and the people of Israel; and go, serve the Lord, as you have said. Take your flocks and your herds, as you have said, and be gone, and bless me also!”

To conclude this essay I want to consider the apparent difference between what the Lord said to Moses and what Moses said to the judges of Israel (Numbers 25:3b-5 ESV).

And the anger of the Lord was kindled against Israel. And the Lord said to Moses, “Take all the chiefs of the people and hang them in the sun before the Lord, that the fierce anger of the Lord may turn away from Israel.” And Moses said to the judges of Israel, “Each of you kill those of his men who have yoked themselves to Baal of Peor.”

A table comparing the Masoretic text and the Septuagint follows:

Masoretic Text		Septuagint
Numbers 25:4, 5 (Tanakh)	Numbers 25:4, 5 (NET)	Numbers 25:4, 5 (NETS)	Numbers 25:4, 5 (English Elpenor)
And HaShem said unto Moses: ‘Take all (כָּל) the chiefs (רָאשֵׁ֣י) of the people (הָעָ֔ם), and hang them up unto HaShem in face of the sun, that the fierce anger of HaShem may turn away from Israel.’	The Lord said to Moses, “Arrest all (kōl, כל) the leaders (rō’š, ראשי) of the people (ʿam, העם), and hang them up before the Lord in broad daylight, so that the fierce anger of the Lord may be turned away from Israel.”	And the Lord said to Moyses, “Take the chiefs (πάντας τοὺς ἀρχηγοὺς) of the people (τοῦ λαοῦ), and make an example of them to the Lord before the sun, and the anger of the Lord’s wrath shall be turned away from Israel.”	And the Lord said to Moses, Take all (πάντας) the princes (τοὺς ἀρχηγοὺς) of the people (τοῦ λαοῦ), and make them examples [of judgment] for the Lord in the face of the sun, and the anger of the Lord shall be turned away from Israel.
And Moses said unto the judges (שֹֽׁפְטֵ֖י) of Israel: ‘Slay ye every one his men that have joined themselves unto the Baal of Peor.’	So Moses said to the judges (šāp̄aṭ, שפטי) of Israel, “Each of you must execute those of his men who were joined to Baal Peor.”	And Moyses said to the tribes (ταῖς φυλαῖς) of Israel, “Each of you kill his family-member who has been initiated to Beel-Phegor.”	And Moses said to the tribes (ταῖς φυλαῖς) of Israel, Slay ye every one his friend that is consecrated to Beel-phegor.

The only potentially meaningful difference is שֹֽׁפְטֵ֖י (šāp̄aṭ), translated the judges (Tanakh, NET), in the Masoretic text and ταῖς φυλαῖς, translated the tribes (NETS, English Elpenor), in the Septuagint. In English, if I limit myself to the immediate context, it sounds as if the Lord intended to make an example (NETS) of a relatively limited number of leaders, while Moses’ intended to execute everyone who sinned. I’ll broaden the context (Exodus 22:20 ESV):

Whoever sacrifices to any god, other than the Lord alone, shall be devoted to destruction.

So, I assume that the judges, שֹֽׁפְטֵ֖י (šāp̄aṭ), refers to the seventy elders who received some of the Spirit that is on Moses (Numbers 11:16-17, 24-29), and are to be distinguished from the chiefs (Tanakh) or the leaders (NET), רָאשֵׁ֣י (rō’š), e.g., “the heads,” appointed during the first census. So, I’m assuming that Moses carried out the Lord’s instruction regarding the chiefs appointed during the first census even as he delegated the enforcement of the Lord’s law to the judges or the tribes (ταῖς φυλαῖς). And this just and lawful bloodshed describes the plague on the people of Israel mentioned below (Numbers 25:6-9 ESV):

And behold, one of the people of Israel came and brought a Midianite woman to his family, in the sight of Moses and in the sight of the whole congregation of the people of Israel, while they were weeping in the entrance of the tent of meeting. When Phinehas the son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he rose and left the congregation and took a spear in his hand and went after the man of Israel into the chamber and pierced both of them, the man of Israel and the woman through her belly. Thus the plague (magēp̄â, הַמַּגֵּפָה; Septuagint: ἡ πληγὴ) on the people of Israel was stopped. Nevertheless, those who died by the plague were twenty-four thousand.

I’ll pick this up in another essay.
