Context: Cozbi is a Midianite woman mentioned in the Book of Numbers. She was the daughter of Zur, a tribal chief of Midian. Cozbi is notably involved in the incident at Peor, where she engaged in an illicit relationship with an Israelite man named Zimri, son of Salu, a leader of a Simeonite family. This act of immorality and idolatry provoked the anger of the LORD against Israel, leading to a plague among the people. The situation was resolved when Phinehas, the grandson of Aaron the priest, executed judgment by killing both Cozbi and Zimri with a spear, an act that halted the plague. This event is recorded in Numbers 25:6-15. Cozbi's story serves as a cautionary tale against idolatry and immorality, highlighting the importance of faithfulness to God's commandments.
