Numbers 16:3
_ _ they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron — The assemblage seems to have been composed of the whole band of conspirators; and they grounded their complaint on the fact that the whole people, being separated to the divine service (Exodus 19:6), were equally qualified to present offerings on the altar, and that God, being graciously, present among them by the tabernacle and the cloud, evinced His readiness to receive sacrifices from the hand of any others as well as from theirs. |
Numbers 16:3
They — Korah, Dathan and Abiram, and the rest, who were all together when Moses spake those words, Numbers 16:5-7, but after that, Dathan and Abiram retired to their tents, and then Moses sent for Korah and the Levites, who had more colourable pretences to the priesthood, and treats with them apart, and speaks what is mentioned, Numbers 16:8-11. Having dispatched them, he sends for Dathan and Abiram, Numbers 16:12, that he might reason the case with them also apart. Against Aaron — To whom the priesthood was confined, and against Moses, both because this was done by his order, and because before Aaron's consecration Moses appropriated it to himself. For whatever they intended, they seem not now directly to strike at Moses for his supreme civil government, but only for his influence in the disposal of the priesthood. Ye take too much — By perpetuating the priesthood in yourselves and family, with the exclusion of all others from it. All are holy — A kingdom of priests, an holy nation, as they are called, Exodus 19:6, a people separated to the service of God, and therefore no less fit to offer sacrifice and incense, than you are. Among them — By his tabernacle and cloud, the tokens of his gracious presence, and therefore ready to receive sacrifices from their own hands. Ye — Thou Moses, by prescribing what laws thou pleasest about the priesthood, and confining it to thy brother; and thou Aaron by usurping it as thy peculiar privilege. |
Numbers 16:3
And they gathered themselves together against Moses and against Aaron, and said unto them, (a) [Ye take] too much upon you, seeing all the congregation [are] holy, (b) every one of them, and the LORD [is] among them: wherefore then lift ye up yourselves above the congregation of the LORD?
(a) Or let it suffice you: meaning, to have abused them this long.
(b) All are equally holy: therefore no one should be preferred above other: thus the wicked reason against God's ordinance. |
