and Moab was terrified of the people
The Moabites, descendants of Lot, were historically related to the Israelites but often found themselves in conflict with them. The fear of Moab is rooted in the recent victories of the Israelites over the Amorites, as recorded in the preceding chapters. This fear is not just a military concern but also a spiritual one, as the Moabites were aware of the divine favor upon Israel. The terror of Moab reflects the fulfillment of God's promise to make Israel a formidable nation (Genesis 12:2).

because they were numerous.
The Israelites' large numbers were a sign of God's blessing and fulfillment of His promise to Abraham to make his descendants as numerous as the stars (Genesis 15:5). This numerical strength was intimidating to surrounding nations, who saw it as a potential threat to their own security and resources. The census inNumbers 1 and 26 highlights the vast population of Israel, emphasizing their growth during the wilderness period.

Indeed, Moab dreaded the Israelites.
The dread of Moab is not merely a fear of military defeat but also an existential threat to their way of life and religious practices. The Moabites worshiped Chemosh, and the presence of a monotheistic people with a powerful God challenged their beliefs. This dread foreshadows the spiritual battles that Israel would face in maintaining their covenant identity amidst pagan nations. The Moabites' fear also sets the stage for the subsequent narrative involving Balaam, where spiritual warfare is waged through curses and blessings.

Teaching Points
Fear of God's People
The fear that Moab experiences is a testament to God's power and the fulfillment of His promises to Israel. As believers, we can trust that God is faithful to His word and will protect and guide His people.

God's Sovereignty
The account underscores God's control over nations and events. Despite Moab's fear and subsequent actions, God's plan for Israel remains unthwarted. This reminds us to trust in God's overarching plan for our lives.

The Impact of God's Work
The fear of Moab reflects the visible impact of God's work through His people. As Christians, our lives should similarly reflect God's presence, prompting others to recognize His power and authority.

Responding to Fear
Moab's response to fear was to seek a curse against Israel. In contrast, believers are called to respond to fear with faith and reliance on God, seeking His guidance and peace.

Who was Balak in the Bible?

Who were the Moabites in the Bible?

How does Micah 6:5 align with or contradict other biblical accounts concerning Balak, Balaam, and their historical credibility?

Numbers 20:12 - Why would a single act of disobedience prevent Moses and Aaron from entering the Promised Land, despite their lifelong dedication?(3)And Moab was sore afraid of the people.--There was no ground for this apprehension, inasmuch as the Divine command given to Moses was "Distress not the Moabites, neither contend with them in battle" (Deuteronomy 2:9). It does not appear, however, that Balak was aware of the prohibition; and the recent conquests of the Israelites naturally filled the Moabites with alarm, especially inasmuch as when the Israelites sent to the King of Moab to ask permission to pass through his land he did not consent (Judges 11:17).

Verse 3. -Moab was sore afraid of the people. While the Israelites had moved along their eastern and north-eastern border, the Moabites supplied them with provisions (Deuteronomy 2:29), desiring, no doubt, to be rid of them, but not disdaining to make some profit by their presence. But after the sudden defeat and overthrow of their own Amorite conquerors, their terror and uneasiness forced them to take some action, although they dared not commence open hostilities.
