Israel Worships Baal at Peor

25 While the people of Israel were still camped at ·Acacia [^LShittim], the men began ·sinning sexually [to prostitute themselves] with Moabite women [^Con the advice of Balaam who found another way to get his money; 31:16]. ² The women invited them to their sacrifices to their gods, and the ·Israelites [^Lpeople] ate food there and worshiped these gods. ³ So the Israelites ·began to worship [^Lyoked themselves to] Baal of Peor, and the Lord was very angry with them.
