Back to Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary on the Whole Bible
Back to Numbers.
16-18 We read not that any Midianites died of the plague; God punished them with the sword of an enemy, not with the rod of a father. We must set ourselves against whatever is an occasion of sin to us, Matt 5:29; Matt 5:30. Whatever draws us to sin, should be a vexation to us, as a thorn in the flesh.
And none will be more surely and severely punished than those who, after Satan's example, and with his subtlety, tempt others to sin.
