Bamidbar 16:24

24 Speak unto HaEdah, saying, Get you up away from the mishkan Korach, Datan, and Aviram.

Bamidbar 16:24 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 16:24

Speak unto the congregation
Not to Korah's company, but to the people of Israel, of the several tribes that were assembled together: saying, get ye up from about the tabernacle of Korah, and Dathan, and
Abiram;
which was either the same with their tents, as in ( Numbers 16:26 ) ; though, as they were of different tribes, Korah of the tribe of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram of the tribe of Reuben, their tents must be in distinct and different places, though both encamped on the same side of the tabernacle, and pretty near to each other; the camp of Levi was nearest the tabernacle, and the camp of Reuben next to it. It may be, there was a single tabernacle erected on this occasion, for all these men to meet at when they judged it necessary. Aben Ezra is of opinion, Korah had a tent for his men and substance, at a distance from the camp of the Levites, and to his tent joined the tents of Dathan and Abiram.
