Numbers 16:2 And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:
250 MEN
Numbers 16:3 And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, You take too much upon you, seeing all the congregation are Holy, every one of them, and Yahveh is among them: wherefore then lift you up yourselves above the congregation of Yahveh?
Numbers 16:4 And when Moses heard it, he fell upon his face:
Numbers 16:5 And he spoke unto Korah and unto all his company, saying, Even to morrow Yahveh will show who are His, and who is Holy; and will cause to come near unto Him: even whom He has chosen will He cause to come near unto Him.
Numbers 16:6 This do; Take you censers, Korah, and all his company;
Numbers 16:7 And put fire therein, and put incense in them before Yahveh to morrow: and it shall be the man whom Yahveh dose choose, he shall be Holy: you take too much upon you, you sons of Levi.
Numbers 16:8 And Moses said unto Korah, Hear, I pray you, you sons of Levi:
Numbers 16:9 Seeing it but a small thing unto you, that Elohiym of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel, to bring you near to Himself to do the service of the tabernacle of Yahveh, and to stand before the congregation to minister unto them?
Numbers 16:10 And he has brought you near to Him, and all your brethren the sons of Levi with you: and seek you the priesthood also?
Numbers 16:11 For which cause both you and all your company are gathered together against Yahveh: and what is Aaron, that you murmur against him?
Numbers 16:12 And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab: which said, We will not come up:
Numbers 16:13 Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land that flowed with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, except you make yourself altogether a prince over us?
Numbers 16:14 Moreover you have not brought us into a land that flows with milk and honey, or given us inheritance of fields and vineyards: will you put out the eyes of these men? we will not come up.
Numbers 16:15 And Moses was very angry, and said unto Yahveh, Respect not you their offering: I have not taken one ass from them, neither have I hurt one of them.
Numbers 16:16 And Moses said unto Korah, Be you and all your company before Yahveh, you, and they, and Aaron, to morrow:
Numbers 16:17 And take every man his censer, and put incense in them, and bring you before Yahveh every man his censer, two hundred and fifty censers; you also, and Aaron, each of you his censer.
Numbers 16:18 And they took every man his censer, and put fire in them, and laid incense thereon, and stood in the door of the tabernacle of the congregation with Moses and Aaron.
Numbers 16:19 And Korah gathered all the congregation against them unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the glory of Yahveh appeared unto all the congregation.
Numbers 16:20 And Yahveh spoke unto Moses and unto Aaron, saying,
Numbers 16:21 Separate yourselves from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.
Numbers 16:22 And they fell upon their faces, and said, O Elohiym, the Elohiym of the spirits of all flesh, shall one man sin, and will You be angry with all the congregation?
Numbers 16:23 And Yahveh spoke unto Moses, saying,
Numbers 16:24 Speak unto the congregation, saying, Get you up from about the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram.
Numbers 16:25 And Moses rose up and went unto Dathan and Abiram; and the elders of Israel followed him.
Numbers 16:26 And he spoke unto the congregation, saying, Depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men, and touch nothing of theirs, lest you be consumed in all their sins.
Numbers 16:27 So they got up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side: and Dathan and Abiram came out, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons, and their little children.
WIVES SONS CHILDREN THAT IS NOW 250 MEN 250 WIVES IF ALL HAD 2 CHILDREN 500.
Numbers 16:28 And Moses said, Hereby you shall know that Yahveh has sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of mine own mind.
Numbers 16:29 If these men die the common death of all men, or if they be visited after the visitation of all men; Then Yahveh has not sent me.
Numbers 16:30 But if Yahveh make a new thing, and the earth open her mouth, and swallow them up, with all that appertain unto them, and they go down quick into the pit; then you shall understand that these men have provoked Yahveh.
Numbers 16:31 And it came to pass, as he had made an end of speaking all these words, that the ground DIVIDED APART that was under them:
Numbers 16:32 And the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed them up, and their houses, and all the men that belong unto Korah, and all their goods.
Numbers 16:33 They, and all that belong to them, went down alive into the pit, and the earth closed upon them: and they perished from among the congregation.
Numbers 16:34 And all Israel that were round about them fled at the cry of them: for they said, Lest the earth swallow us up also.
Numbers 16:35 And there came out a fire from Yahveh, and consumed the two hundred and fifty men that offered incense.
Numbers 16:36 And Yahveh spoke unto Moses, saying,
Numbers 16:37 Speak unto Eleazar the son of Aaron the priest, that he take up the censers out of the burning, and scatter you the fire yonder; for they are Hallowed.
Numbers 16:38 The censers of these sinners against their own souls, let them make them broad plates for a covering of the altar: for they offered them before Yahveh, therefore they are Hallowed: and they shall be a sign unto the children of Israel.
Numbers 16:39 And Eleazar the priest took the brasen censers, wherewith they that were burnt had offered; and they were made broad plates for a covering of the altar:
Numbers 16:40 To be a memorial unto the children of Israel, that no stranger, which is not of the seed of Aaron, come near to offer incense before Yahveh; that he be not as Korah, and as his company: as Yahveh said to him by the hand of Moses.
Numbers 16:41 But on the morrow all the congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron, saying, YOU have killed the people of Yahveh.
Numbers 16:42 And it came to pass, when the congregation was gathered against Moses and against Aaron, that they looked toward the tabernacle of the congregation: and, behold, the cloud covered it, and the glory of Yahveh appeared.
Numbers 16:43 And Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of the congregation.
Numbers 16:44 And Yahveh spoke unto Moses, saying,
Numbers 16:45 Get you away from among this congregation, that I may consume them as in a moment. And they fell upon their faces.
Numbers 16:46 And Moses said unto Aaron, Take a censer, and put fire therein from off the altar, and put on incense, and go quickly unto the congregation, and make an atonement for them: for there is wrath gone out from Yahveh; the plague is begun.
Numbers 16:47 And Aaron took as Moses commanded, and ran into the middle of the congregation; and, behold, the plague was begun among the people: and he put on incense, and made an atonement for the people.
Numbers 16:48 And he stood between the dead and the living; and the plague was stayed.
Numbers 16:49 Now they that died in the plague were fourteen thousand and seven hundred, beside them that died about the matter of Korah.
14,700 + 500 + 500 = 15,700 OF THE CONGREGATION DIED.
Numbers 16:50 And Aaron returned unto Moses unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation: and the plague was stayed.
Mark 10:17 And when Yashua was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to Him, and asked Yashua, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?

Luke 10:23 And Yashua turned unto His disciples, and said privately, Blessed are the eyes which see the things that you see:
Luke 10:24 For I tell you, that many prophets and kings have desired to see those things which you see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which you hear, and have not heard them.
Luke 10:25 And, behold, a certain lawyer stood up, and tempted Yashua, saying, Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

Luke 10:27 And he answering said, You shall love Yahveh your Elohiym with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbors as yourself.
Luke 10:28 And Yashua said unto him, You have answered right: this do, and you shall live.
