Numeri 16:11 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 16:11

For which cause, both [thou] and all thy company [are]
gathered together against the Lord
For gathering together against his ministers, whom he had put into office to act under him, and endeavouring to overturn a constitution of his erecting, and resisting and not submitting to an ordinance of his, is interpreted gathering against him, and acting in opposition to him; see ( Romans 13:1 Romans 13:2 ) ;

and what [is] Aaron, that ye murmur against him?
what is his transgression? what has he done? as Aben Ezra paraphrases it; he is not chargeable with any fault, he did not take upon him the office of high priest of himself, God called him to it, and put him in it; he is only his minister, and by no means to be blamed, and therefore it is unreasonable to envy him, or murmur against him; and, indeed, murmuring against him is murmuring against the Lord.

9 È egli troppo poco per voi, che l’Iddio d’Israele v’abbia appartati della raunanza d’Israele, per farvi accostare a sè, per fare il servigio del Tabernacolo del Signore, e per presentarvi davanti alla raunanza, per fare il suo ministerio?
10 E ch’egli abbia in effetto fatto accostar te, e tutti i tuoi fratelli, figliuoli di Levi, teco; che voi procacciate ancora il sacerdozio?
11 Perciò, tu, e tutto il tuo seguito, siete quelli che si son convenuti contro al Signore; e che cosa è Aaronne, che voi mormorate contro a lui?
12 Mosè mandò ancora a chiamar Datan e Abiram, figliuoli di Eliab; ma essi dissero: Noi non ci andremo.
13 È egli poca cosa che tu ci abbi tratti fuor di un paese stillante latte e miele, per farci morir nel deserto, che tu vogli eziandio assolutamente fare il principe sopra noi?
