SEV Biblia, Chapter 16:27
Y se apartaron de las tiendas de Coré, de Datán, y de Abiram en derredor; y Datán y Abiram salieron y se pusieron a las puertas de sus tiendas, con sus mujeres, sus hijos, y sus chiquitos.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 27. So they gat up from the tabernacle of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, on every side , etc.] The place where they met together and made their general rendezvous; this it seems was encompassed on all sides by people out of the several tribes, who either wished them well in their undertaking, or were curious to know how it would issue; and Dathan and Abiram came out ; out of the tabernacle of Korah, and went to their own tents; and came out of them, and stood in the door of their tents, and their wives, and their sons , and their little children ; in an audacious manner, as not fearing God nor man; they carried their heads high, and were not in the least daunted at what they were threatened with; and by their looks and gestures bid defiance to Moses and the elders with him.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 23-34 - The seventy elders of Israel attend Moses. It is our duty to do what we can to countenance and support lawful authority when it is opposed. An those who would not perish with sinners, must come out from among them and be separate. It was in answer to the prayer of Moses, that God stirred up the hearts of the congregation to remove for their ow safety. Grace to separate from evil-doers is one of the things tha accompany salvation. God, in justice, left the rebels to the obstinac and hardness of their own hearts. Moses, by Divine direction, when all Israel were waiting the event, declares that if the rebels die a commo death, he will be content to be called and counted an imposter. As soo as Moses had spoken the word, God caused the earth to open and swallo them all up. The children perished with their parents; in which, thoug we cannot tell how bad they might be to deserve it, or how good God might be otherwise to them; yet of this we are sure, that Infinit Justice did them no wrong. It was altogether miraculous. God has, when he pleases, strange punishments for the workers of iniquity. It wa very significant. Considering how the earth is still in like manne loaded with the weight of man's sins, we have reason to wonder that is does not now sink under its load. The ruin of others should be ou warning. Could we, by faith, hear the outcries of those that are gon down to the bottomless pit, we should give more diligence than we do to escape for our lives, lest we also come into their condemnation.
