Summary
[edit]DescriptionZimri and Cozbi are slain by Phinehas (Mortier's Bible).jpg |
English: Zimri and Cozbi are slain by Phinehas. In this interpretation of chapter 25 of the Book of Numbers (Numbers 25), Phinehas killed the Israelite man Zimri and the Midianite princess Cozbi (Kozbi) (verse 7–8) as they were having sex in an ordinary tent in the Israelite military camp (verse 6) at Shittim near Mount Peor (verses 1–3). Outside the tents, people lay dead; apparently these are Israelites struck by the plague (verses 8–9). On the edge of the camp, soldiers stand on guard. Just outside the camp, a number of people are impaled (verse 4–5): the chiefs of the Israelite men, who engaged in sexual immorality with Moabite women and worshipped their gods (verse 1–3); this last act appears to be shown in the far background, with people on a mountain gathering around a pole, perhaps a Moabite godly idol.
Engraving from Historie des Ouden en Nieuwen Testaments : verrykt met meer dan vierhonderd printverbeeldingen in koper gesneeden) ("History of the Old and New Testaments: enriched with more than four hundred printed illustrations cut in copper") (1700), published by David Martin in Amsterdam, Netherlands (then known as the Dutch Republic). David Martin (1639–1721) was a French Protestant theologian who, following the 1685 Edict of Nantes, had fled to the Netherlands and became a pastor at a Walloon Church there. This 1700 book with 420 engravings was printed by Pieter Mortier I (1661–1711), and therefore also known as "Mortier's Bible".
Nederlands: In deze interpretatie van Numeri 25 doodde Pinechas de Israëlitische man Zimri en de Midianitische prinses Kozbi (verzen 7–8) terwijl zij seks hadden in een gewone tent in het Israëlitische legerkamp (vers 6) bij Sittim in de buurt van de berg Peor (verzen 1–3). Buiten het tentenkamp liggen dode mensen; dit lijken Israëlieten te zijn die door de plaag zijn getroffen (verzen 8–9). Aan de rand van het kamp staan soldaten op wacht. Net buiten het kamp zijn een aantal mensen gespietst (verzen 4–5): de familiehoofden van de Israëlitische mannen die seks hadden gehad met Moabitische vrouwen en hun goden hadden vereerd (verzen 1–3); deze laatste handeling lijkt te worden vertoond in de verre achtergrond rechtsboven, met mensen op een berg die zich verzamelen rondom een paal, wellicht een Moabitisch afgodsbeeld.
