N U M B E R S CHAP. XVI. The date of the history contained in this chapter is altogether uncertain. Probably these mutinies happened after their removal back again from Kadesh-barnea, when they were fixed (if I may so speak) for their wandering in the wilderness, and began to look upon that as their settlement. Presently after new laws given follows the story of a new rebellion, as if sin took occasion from the commandment to become more exceedingly sinful. Here is, I. A daring and dangerous rebellion raised against Moses and Aaron, by Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, Numbers 16:1-15 . 1. Korah and his accomplices contend for the priesthood against Aaron, Numbers 16:3 . Moses reasons with them, and appeals to God for a decision of the controversy, Numbers 16:4-11 . 2. Dathan and Abiram quarrel with Moses, and refuse to obey his summons, which greatly grieves him, Numbers 16:12-15 . II. A solemn appearance of the pretenders to the priesthood before God, according to order, and a public appearance of the glory of the Lord, which would have consumed the whole congregation if Moses and Aaron had not interceded, Numbers 16:16-22 . III. The deciding of the controversy, and the crushing of the rebellion, by the cutting off of the rebels. 1. Those in their tents were buried alive, Numbers 16:23-34 . 2. Those at the door of the tabernacle were consumed by fire ( Numbers 16:35 ), and their censers preserved for a memorial, Numbers 16:37-40 . IV. A new insurrection of the people, Numbers 16:41-43 . 1. God stayed in the insurrection by a plague, Numbers 16:45 . 2. Aaron stayed the plague by offering incense, Numbers 16:46-50 . The manner and method of recording this story plainly show the ferment to have been very great. return to ' Top of Page ' <a name="verses-1-11" class="com-number"
