Numbers 23:15
"He took him into the field of Zophim, to the top of Pisgah, and built seven altars, and offered up a bull and a ram on every altar."
Key Reflection
In this passage, Balaam ascends a symbolic high place, building multiple altars as he seeks to curse Israel despite divine prohibition. The number seven, often representing completeness or perfection in Scripture, underscores the significance and divine ordination of his actions, even though they ultimately serve God's purposes rather than Balaam’s intentions.
