Contextual Overview

¹² Then Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiron the sons of Eliab. But they answered: We will not come. ¹³ Is it a small matter to thee, that thou hast brought us out of a land that flowed with milk and honey, to kill us in the desert, except thou rule also like a lord over us? ¹⁴ Thou hast brought us indeed into a land that floweth with rivers of milk and honey, and hast given us possessions of fields and vineyards; wilt thou also pull out our eyes? We will not come. ¹⁵ Moses therefore being very angry, said to the Lord: Respect not their sacrifices: thou knowest that I have not taken of them so much as a young ass at any time, nor have injured any of them. ¹⁶ And he said to Core: Do thou and thy congregation stand apart before the Lord to morrow, and Aaron apart. ¹⁷ Take every one of you censers, and put incense upon them, offering to the Lord two hundred and fifty censers: let Aaron also hold his censer. ¹⁸ When they had done this, Moses and Aaron standing, ¹⁹ And had drawn up all the multitude against them to the door of the tabernacle, the glory of the Lord appeared to them all. ²⁰ And the Lord speaking to Moses and Aaron, said: ²¹ Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may presently destroy them.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Separate yourselves, from among this congregation,.... Not only from Korah's company, but from the congregation of the children of Israel, whom Korah had got together, besides the two hundred fifty men that were at first with him; who by their words and behaviour, and particularly by their association and standing along with him, showed them to be on his side, which greatly provoked the Lord:

that I may consume them in a moment; by fire from him, as the two hundred fifty men were afterwards consumed, Numbers 16:35.
