Ellicott's Commentary
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(9) What men are these with thee?--This inquiry, like that addressed to Elijah, "What doest thou here?" (1Kings 19:9), or that to Hezekiah, "What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee?" and "What have they seen in thine house?" (Isaiah 39:3-4) was calculated to arouse the slumbering conscience of Balaam, and to open his eyes to a perception of his sin and of his danger.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewThen Godאֱלֹהִ֖ים (’ĕ·lō·hîm)Noun - masculine pluralStrong's 430: gods -- the supreme God, magistrates, a superlativecameוַיָּבֹ֥א (way·yā·ḇō)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 935: To come in, come, go in, gotoאֶל־ (’el-)PrepositionStrong's 413: Near, with, among, toBalaamבִּלְעָ֑ם (bil·‘ām)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 1109: Balaam -- a prophetand asked,וַיֹּ֕אמֶר (way·yō·mer)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Qal - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 559: To utter, say“Whoמִ֛י (mî)InterrogativeStrong's 4310: Who?, whoever, in oblique construction with prefix, suffixare theseהָאֵ֖לֶּה (hā·’êl·leh)Article | Pronoun - common pluralStrong's 428: These, thosemenהָאֲנָשִׁ֥ים (hā·’ă·nā·šîm)Article | Noun - masculine pluralStrong's 582: Man, mankindwith you?”עִמָּֽךְ׃ (‘im·māḵ)Preposition | second person feminine singularStrong's 5973: With, equally withJump to PreviousBalaam
