An inspiring message of faith, courage, and Jewish resilience from Chaim Malespin.
Thousands of years ago, a king tried to use a prophet to curse the people of Israel. But instead of a curse, Israel received a blessing.
In a powerful new message, Chaim Malespin revisits the biblical story of Balaam and Balak in Numbers 22–24, reminding us why this ancient account continues to resonate with the Jewish people today.
Balak, the king of Moab, feared the Israelites and hired Balaam to curse them.
His intention was clear: Curse Israel. Break Israel. Stop Israel.
But Balaam could not pronounce the curse that God had forbidden.
Instead, every attempt to curse Israel became a blessing.
As Balaam declared:
“How can I curse whom God has not cursed?” — Numbers 23:8
In his courageous message, Chaim connects this ancient biblical account with Israel's history and the challenges facing the Jewish people today.
From hostile declarations to threats against Israel's existence, Chaim reminds listeners that attempts to weaken the Jewish people are not new.
Yet the Jewish people have endured.
Empires rose and fell. Israel experienced suffering and exile. But the Jewish people survived and returned to their ancestral homeland.
“God's covenant is not fragile. God's promises are not cancelled by hatred.” — Chaim Malespin
Chaim also emphasizes that the biblical account does not promise a life without suffering. Rather, his message focuses on the enduring covenant between God and the people of Israel.
