Numbers 16:26

“And he spake unto the congregation, etc.] To the people of Israel assembled together on this occasion: some, out of ill will to Moses and Aaron, inclining to the side of Korah and his accomplices, and some out of curiosity to see the issue of this affair saying, depart, I pray you, from the tents of these wicked men; these turbulent, seditious, and ill-designing men, disturbers of the commonwealth and church of Israel, enemies to the peace of its civil and ecclesiastic state: and when Moses desires the people to depart from their tents, he means not only that they would remove in person, and stand at a distance, but such who had their tents, and families, and substance near them, would take…”

“16:26 don’t touch anything that belongs to them: These men and their belongings were now “set apart for destruction” (see Lev 27:28-29; cp. Deut 7:26; 13:17; Josh 6:18; 7:1-26).”

“I pray you: The rebels, with all that belonged to them, were, as an accursed thing, devoted to utter destruction ( Lev 27:28, Lev 27:29. Jos 7:13-15, Jos 7:23-26). The people therefore were forbidden to touch anything belonging to them; that they might enter a solemn protest against their wickedness, acknowledge the justice of their punishment, and express their fear of being involved in it.
