He Was Zealous for his God
Description: On the border of the promised land, Israel faces a challenge. Unable to curse Israel, the false prophet advises sending in young women to entice. A prince of the tribe of Simeon, as well as some others, succumbed to idolatrous immorality. A faithful, zealous priest, Phinehas took the matter in hand and dealt with the problem of sin in the midst of the Camp. Thus Phinehas exhibits the atoning work of Jesus Christ.
