So the children of Israel spoke to Moses, saying, “Surely we die, we perish, we all perish! Whoever even comes near the tabernacle of the Lord must die." (Numbers 17:12-13) For all the attention that Aaron's rod garnered through this incident -- and it was indeed...

Then Moses brought out all the rods from before the Lord to all the children of Israel; and they looked, and each man took his rod. And the Lord said to Moses, “Bring Aaron’s rod back before the Testimony, to be kept as a sign against the rebels." (Numbers 17:9-10) To...

And it shall be that the rod of the man whom I choose will blossom; thus I will rid Myself of the complaints of the children of Israel, which they make against you. (Numbers 17:5) In the aftermath of Korah's rebellion and the subsequent complaints coming from the...

So Moses said to Aaron, “Take a censer and put fire in it from the altar, put incense on it, and take it quickly to the congregation and make atonement for them; for wrath has gone out from the Lord." (Numbers 16:46) It is amazing to me that, after all that had...

The censers of these men who sinned against their own souls, let them be made into hammered plates as a covering for the altar. Because they presented them before the Lord, therefore they are holy; and they shall be a sign to the children of Israel. (Numbers 16:38) It...

And he spoke to the congregation, saying, “Depart now from the tents of these wicked men! Touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins.” (Numbers 16:26) At a certain point, it seems that some of the Levites, including the sons of Korah, began to...

So the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the congregation, saying, ‘Get away from the tents of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.’” (Numbers 16:23-24) In response to Moses intercession, God instructed the people to separate themselves from the rebels. In short, God gave...
