And the angel of the LORD said unto Balaam, Go with the men: but only the word that I shall speak unto thee, that thou shalt speak. So Balaam went with the princes of Balak. And when Balak heard that Balaam was come, he went out to meet him unto a city of Moab, which is in the border of Arnon, which is in the utmost coast. And Balak said unto Balaam, Did I not earnestly send unto thee to call thee? wherefore camest thou not unto me? am I not able indeed to promote thee to honour? And Balaam said unto Balak, Lo, I am come unto thee: have I now any power at all to say any thing? the word that God putteth in my mouth, that shall I speak.-Numbers 22:35-38***The Amalekites were the 1st enemies to get beaten by the Israelites after Moses and Moses' older brother Aaron led the Israelites away from Egyptian slavery, across the divinely parted Red Sea, and into the desert wilderness of Shur. In Rephidim, the Amalekites came to fight the Israelites, the treasured and chosen people of the Lord God. The divinely inspired Scriptures of the Holy Bible reveal that the Lord God delivered the Amalekites into the hands of the Israelites. In the desert wilderness of Paran, the Amalekites and Canaanites defeated a group of Israelites who arrived to attack  despite a warning from Moses and without permission from the Lord God. Decades thereafter, when the Edomites gathered for a battle, the Israelites obeyed the command of the Lord God and went away rather than fight the Edomites. King Arad and his fellow Canaanites fought the Israelites, won and took captives. Meanwhile, the Israelites proclaimed a vow to the Lord God, and the Lord God allowed the Israelites to defeat Arad and the Canaanites. In Jahaz, the Israelites defeated King Sihon and the Amorites. Moreover, the Israelites conquered Jazer. When the Israelites neared the land ruled by King Balak, Balak knew about the victories of the Israelites and sent for Balaam, a known seer. The Canaanites and Amorites were descendants of Canaan, and Canaan was born to Ham, and Ham was born to Noah the ark builder. The Israelites descended from Noah's son Shem, and Shem's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandchildren Abraham (Abram the Hebrew) and Sarah (Sarai), their son Isaac and his wife Rebekah, and Isaac and Rebekah's youngest fraternal twin son Jacob (Israel). The Edomites descended from Jacob's older fraternal twin brother Esau (Edom). A group of Amalekites descended from Esau's son Eliphaz and Eliphaz's concubine Timna. Other Amalekites existed earlier. Balak was a Moabite descended from Abraham and Sarah's nephew Lot and Lot's oldest daughter, and the son, Moab, born to Lot and his daughter. During the 40th year of the journey to Canaan, the Promised Land, 123-year-old Aaron the high priest died upon Mount Hor, and Moses went upon Mount Nebo. The Lord God showed Moses the Promised Land, and 120-year-old Moses the prophet died and was divinely buried. Joshua, Moses' aide and successor, was from the tribe of Ephraim, descended from Jacob and his 2nd wife Rachel, their firstborn son Joseph and his wife Asenath, and Joseph and Asenath's 2nd born son Ephraim, whom Jacob proclaimed to be his own son. Joshua led the Israelites across the divinely parted Jordan River and onto the land that the Lord God promised to give to Abraham, and Isaac, and to Jacob, and their descendants. Over 1,300 years after 110-year-old Joshua died and was buried in his tribe's portion of the Promised Land, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Jacob's 4th born son Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 13:1-14:45, 20:14-25:18, 27:12-23, 31:1-54, Deuteronomy 1:1-3:29, 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26

Absalom and Joab

So Absalom dwelt two full years in Jerusalem, and saw not the king's face. Therefore Absalom sent for Joab, to have sent him to the king; but he would not come to him: and when he sent again the second time, he would not come. Therefore he said unto his servants, See, Joab's field is near mine, and he hath barley there; go and set it on fire. And Absalom's servants set the field on fire. Then Joab arose, and came to Absalom unto his house, and said unto him, Wherefore have thy servants set my field on fire? And Absalom answered Joab, Behold, I sent unto thee, saying, Come hither, that I may send thee to the king, to say, Wherefore am I come from Geshur? it had been good for me to have been there still: now therefore let me see the king's face; and if there  be any iniquity in me, let him kill me.-2 Samuel 14:28-32***King David was the 2nd king to rule over all of the Israelites in the Promised Land. Amnon was born to David and Ahinoam. Absalom and Tamar were born to David and Maacah, an Aramean (Syrian) princess. Joab was David's nephew, Amnon's cousin, and commander of the army. Two years after Amnon raped Tamar, Absalom caused Amnon's death and immediately ran to Geshur, Aram, the kingdom ruled by his grandfather King Talmai. Three years after Absalom began living in Geshur, Joab initiated events that led to David giving him permission to bring Absalom home. Two years after Absalom returned, Absalom wanted Joab's help again. Sometime thereafter, Absalom had himself proclaimed king while David still reigned, and Joab plunged 3 spears into Absalom's body. Over 900 years after Solomon, the 2nd child born to David and Bathsheba, became the 3rd king to rule over all of the Israelites, Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was born. Jesus was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, and Jesus was born into the tribe of Judah, the tribe of David and his descendants, to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 23:1-24:33, Judges 1:1-2:23, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings 1:1-2:12, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, 10:1-29:30, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26
