		For from the top of the rocks I see him and from the hills I behold him: It is a people that shall dwell alone, and shall not be regarded among the nations.” (Numbers 23:8-9).
		We usually understand the language “M'Rosh Tzurim - from the top of the rocks” and “U'Migva'ot - from the hills” - to mean that we must view Jewish history from a much higher and longer perspective.
		Namely, that we must have the ability to be seriously retrospective and fully appreciate the depth and breadth of our history.

	Parshas HaShavua
		The first time, the angel stood in a field, where the ass could pass on two sides, representing the merit of Avraham Avinu, which could be circumvented on two sides, because he had two sets of evil descendents, the B'nei Yishmael and the B'nei Keturah (See also Da'as Zekeinim M.T.).
		In keeping with the adage that G-d does not withhold the reward from any creature, the Rosh heard the following - As a result of these sacrifices, G-d decreed that forty-two people from Yisrael had to die.
		And therein, the Gemara explains, lay Bil'am's greatness, in that he was able to gauge that moment and curse whoever he wished to curse.
