Ibn Ezra on Numbers 24:2/אבן עזרא על במדבר כ״ד:ב׳
אשכן לשבטיו. ראה כל הדגולים י"א כי בלעם היה רע עין הנקרא מרע וברעת עינו היה עושה רעות וכבר הודעתיך דעתי:
1DWELLING TRIBE BY TRIBE. He saw all the standards.1 Some say that Balaam had a diabolical eye. Such people are called evildoers. Balaam did evil by employing his diabolic eye. I have already made my opinion known to you.2
