23 A jumenta viu o anjo do Senhor parado no caminho, com a sua espada desembainhada na mão e, desviando-se do caminho, meteu-se pelo campo; pelo que Balaão espancou a jumenta para fazê-la tornar ao caminho.


Commentary on this verse  

By Henry MacLagan

Verse 23. But the Rational, in spite of its condition, perceives Divine Truth from Divine Good as its opponent, and also its power to destroy falsity; and therefore it is diverted from the path of error, and naturally tends to conjunction with good; but the affection of falsity perverts the Rational, and forces it to bend to its requirements.
