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. Num 16:21-24; Gen 19:12-14; Deu 13:17; Isa 52:11; Mat 10:14; Act 8:20, Act 13:51; Co2 6:17; Ti1 5:22; Rev 18:4 Numbers 16:27
