Tuan atas umat; orang asing atau orang rakus, menurut tafsiran yang lain, anak Beor, adalah seorang yang memiliki kedudukan di antara orang Midian (Bilangan 31:8; bd. 16). Ia tinggal di Petor (Ulangan 23:4), di Mesopotamia (Bilangan 23:7). Jelas bahwa meskipun tinggal di antara para penyembah berhala, ia memiliki sedikit pengetahuan tentang Allah yang benar; dan memiliki reputasi sedemikian rupa sehingga dianggap bahwa siapa yang ia berkati akan terberkati, dan siapa yang ia kutuk akan terkutuk. Ketika orang Israel berkemah di dataran Moab, di sebelah timur Sungai Yordan, dekat Yerikho, Balak menyuruh orang memanggil Bileam “dari Aram, dari pegunungan di sebelah timur,” untuk mengutuk mereka; tetapi karena campur tangan Allah yang luar biasa, ia sama sekali tidak dapat memenuhi keinginan Balak, betapa pun ia ingin melakukannya. Rasul Petrus merujuk (2 Petrus 2:15, 16) peristiwa ini sebagai sebuah peristiwa sejarah. Dalam Mikha 6:5, hubungan antara Bileam dan Balak juga disinggung. Meskipun Bileam tidak dapat mengutuk Israel, ia menyarankan suatu cara agar murka ilahi dapat menimpa mereka (Bilangan 25). Dalam pertempuran antara orang Israel dan orang Midian (q.v.), Bileam terbunuh saat berperang di pihak Balak (Bilangan 31:8).

“Ajaran Bileam” disebutkan dalam Wahyu 2:14, merujuk pada kenyataan bahwa melalui pengajaran Bileamlah Balak belajar cara menyesatkan orang Israel ke dalam dosa. Bileam terdorong untuk mengucapkan nubuat-nubuat mengenai masa depan Israel dengan keagungan dan keindahan ungkapan yang luar biasa (Bilangan 24:5-9, 17).
