La bénédiction de Balaam

Balaam stands on a high overlook with his hand raised in prophetic declaration while a crowned king, Balak of Moab, watches beside him with armed attendants in the background. The elevated setting points to the moment when Balak brought Balaam to view Israel and demanded a curse, yet the prophet spoke blessing instead. In the book of Numbers, God turns the intended curse into a testimony of His covenant faithfulness: no enchantment can overturn the word the Lord has spoken over His people. This artwork is well suited for teaching on divine sovereignty, spiritual opposition, the wilderness journey, and God’s protection over Israel.
