“"And that was counted unto him for righteousness among all posterities for evermore" [Psalm 106:31]. God counted this unto His Priest for righteousness, not only as long as posterity shall exist, but "for evermore;" for He who knows the heart, knows how to weigh with how much love for the people that deed was done.”
Augustine of Hippo, 5th c. — Exposition on Psalm 106

30Then stood up Phinehas, and executed judgment: and so the plague was stayed.

33Because they provoked his spirit, so that he spake unadvisedly with his lips.
