Num 22 Balaams Donkey

In this simple story about a donkey who talks, you can see God's protected big picture for us as we see God's chosen people go through Moab on the way to Caanan. We start to see God's big picture, his plan, from Jacob, the father of the Twelve Tribes of Israel, the son of Isaac and Rebekah, who was the grandson of Abraham. Renamed Israel after wrestling with God at the Jabbok River in Gen 32:22. To the growth of the family of Israel in Egypt and their being turned into slaves. And Moses, from the tribe of Levi, who led God's chosen to their Exodus and then this story. God's chosen people, who God would send his son to be among, who would crucify him for all sin, then see him resurrected, ascended and who will come again. This is the story of Balaam who was sent to interfere in God's great plan by King Balak and who was stopped by a donkey who spoke.
