Separate yourselves, from among this congregation, etc.] 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, (<041635>Numbers 16:35).
