Numbers - 24:12 Meaning

“And Balaam said unto Balak, Spake I not also to thy messengers which thou sentest unto me, saying,”

King James Version (KJV)

Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary

24:10-14 This vain attempt to curse Israel is ended. Balak broke out into a rage against Balaam, and expressed great vexation. Balaam has a very full excuse; God restrained him from saying what he would have said, and constrained him to say what he would not have uttered.
