Next Episode: Numbers 34-36, Psalm 37

Remember the Peor incident, where the men of Israel prostituted themselves to Baal along with the women of Moab? Turns out that was led by Balaam, the same Balaam who spoke oracles from the Lord against Moab. After defeating Midian, they begin to divide the spoils of war. The tribes of Reuben and Gad see that this land is good for cattle, and ask if they can settle there. They cut a deal with Moses, assuring him that they will go to war with the rest of Israel before coming back to settle in the land.
