[Avodah] HKB"H doesn't give anyone a test they can't pass

[David Riceman]

RMB:

<<And saying Bil'am didn't pass isn't saying that Bil'am /couldn't/ pass.>>

You didn't look at the Ramban :"When God knows that a tzaddik will do 
His will He tests him, but he won't test the wicked who won't listen."
