Midrash Tenhu Parashat Balak, verse 11 The writer says the Midrash: And Balaam went with Balak and they came to Kiryat Hotuz, what is the name? And Balaam went with Balak and they came to Kiryat Hotuz. The Midrash says that he made a trap for Makhak and Mam Makhak and made him a talisman to impregnate his population, saying, " What are these people coming to kill people and babies who have not What are these people coming to kill people and babies who have not sinned against them?" Parashat says that Balak was cunning, as we know that the wicked are cunning. So what did he do? Balak made all kinds of markets where the wealthy people, men, women and children, took Balaam there to walk in the market. Balak saw a crowd of men, women and children. Balak saw a crowd of men, women and children. Balak said to Balaam, "You see all these people? Here, the people of Israel want to kill them. Isn't it a shame? They want to commit genocide. They should curse the people of Israel. From these, from these, the meaning is, Israel is coming to kill people and babies who have not sinned against them. Have mercy on them so that they will not uproot and destroy Israel. And Balak sacrificed a cow in the wilderness. Here you need to know something interesting that is written. In the Torah, Balak sacrificed cattle and sheep and sent for Balaam and the ministers who were with him. It was a feast to give them food. Now we know that in general it is written that they would honor each other, so it is written that he would make them a feast. It is written in the case of Isaac
