  • Num 25:1-9 : 1 While Israel was staying in Shittim, the people began to commit sexual immorality with the women of Moab. 2 The women invited the people to the sacrifices of their gods, and the people ate and bowed down to their gods. 3 Israel yoked itself to Baal of Peor, and the LORD's anger burned against Israel. 4 The LORD said to Moses, 'Take all the leaders of the people and execute them in broad daylight before the LORD, so that the LORD's fierce anger may turn away from Israel.' 5 So Moses said to the judges of Israel, 'Each of you must kill those of your men who have joined themselves to Baal of Peor.' 6 Then an Israelite man brought a Midianite woman into his family, in the sight of Moses and the whole assembly of Israel, while they were weeping at the entrance to the tent of meeting. 7 When Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, saw this, he rose from among the assembly, took a spear in his hand, 8 followed the Israelite man into the tent, and drove the spear through both of them—the Israelite man and the woman—into her belly. Then the plague against the Israelites was stopped. 9 But those who died in the plague numbered twenty-four thousand.
