Since Balaam could not curse Israel directly, he suggested drawing them into sin. Cozbi whose name means deceiver enticed a prince, Zimri, a Simeonite. and was slain by a javelin in her belly by Aaron’s grandson, Phineas. It actually went through him into her.

Name Meaning—Peaceful
She the daughter of Dibri of the tribes of Dan in the time of Moses, who married an unnamed Egyptian—her name means peaceful, but her life may have been anything but. She became the mother of a son who was stoned to death for blaspheming “the Name.” Angered because he was by divine law excluded from camping with his mother, he cursed God who gave the law, and reviled the judges who pronounced sentence against him.
The story of her being abused by and Egyptian taskmaster, who then killed her husband, and that he was the father and the Egyptian Moses slew, is a little complicated, but is held as a tradition. Rebecca Jones / pexels
