Contextual Overview

13 But they quickly forgot what he had done; they did not wait for his advice. 14 They became greedy for food in the desert, and they tested God there. 15 So he gave them what they wanted, but he also sent a terrible disease among them. 16 The people in the camp were jealous of Moses and of Aaron, the holy priest of the Lord . 17 Then the ground opened up and swallowed Dathan and closed over Abiram's group. 18 A fire burned among their followers, and flames burned up the wicked. 19 The people made a gold calf at Mount Sinai and worshiped a metal statue. 20 They exchanged their glorious God for a statue of a bull that eats grass. 21 They forgot the God who saved them, who had done great things in Egypt, 22 who had done miracles in Egypt and amazing things by the Red Sea.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And a fire was kindled in their company,.... This seems to be the company of Korah, or however a part of it, the two hundred and fifty men that had censers, and so were of the Levitical race, as Korah was; this fire came from the Lord out of heaven.

The flame burned up the wicked; the two hundred and fifty men with censers, Numbers 16:35, this was an emblem of that fire which shall consume those that hurt the witnesses; or of that vengeance of eternal fire which wicked men will suffer for ever.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

On these verses see Numbers 16:31-35. This refers to the time when they rebelled against Moses.
