Números 16:30 Meaning and Commentary

Numbers 16:30

But if the Lord make a new thing
Or "create a creation", or "creature" F19, what never was before, or put those persons to a death that none ever in the world died of yet; what that is he means is next expressed:

and the earth open her mouth and swallow them up, with all that
[appertain] unto them;
their persons, their wives, children and substance:

and they go down quick into the pit;
alive into the grave the opening earth makes for them; this is the new thing created; though the Rabbins say F20, the mouth of the earth, or the opening of the earth, was created from the days of the creation, that is, it was determined or decreed so early that it should be:

then ye shall understated that these men have provoked the Lord;
by rising up against Moses and Aaron, and so against the Lord; by falsely accusing his servants, and endeavouring to set the people against them, and so alter the constitution of things in church and state.

Números 16:30 In-Context

28 Mois茅s sigui贸 diciendo:鈥擜hora van a saber si el SE脩OR me ha enviado a hacer todas estas cosas, o si estoy actuando por mi cuenta.
29 Si estos hombres mueren de muerte natural, como es el destino de todos los hombres, eso querr谩 decir que el SE脩OR no me ha enviado.
30 Pero si el SE脩OR crea algo nuevo, y hace que la tierra se abra y se los trague con todas sus pertenencias, de tal forma que desciendan vivos al sepulcro, entonces sabr谩n que estos hombres menospreciaron al SE脩OR.
31 Tan pronto como Mois茅s termin贸 de hablar, la tierra se abri贸 debajo de ellos;
32 se abri贸 y se los trag贸, a ellos y a sus familias, junto con la gente y las posesiones de Cor茅.
