Balak: Defining Evil

From the archives of Nishma's Online Library at http://www.nishma.org/, we have chosen an article that relates to the week's parsha, both to direct you to this dvar Torah but also for the purposes of initiating some discussion.
This week's parsha is Balak and the topic is the definition of evil. Knowing absolutely that God exists, how can someone do evil? Balak clearly knew of God and knew the repercussions of defying God, yet he chooses to do so. How can we explain this? We invite you to look at an article on this topic at http://www.nishma.org/articles/insight/spark5754-37.htm
