As the Children of Israel encamp in the desert, the king of Moab hires Bilaam to curse them, hoping to prevent the Israelites from entering the Land. But the God of Israel prevents Bilaam from uttering anything but blessings! In today's verse, when Bilaam says "who can count the dust of Jacob," dust refers to the soil, and means "who can count the number of agricultural commandments that are performed by the Jewish people?" The Sabbatical year of rest ("Shemittah") is unique to the Land of Israel, and it brings tremendous merit and spiritual protection to Israel, just as in the times of Bilaam. Share in the blessings!
