Korah, Dathan, and Abiram Lead a Rebellion
16 1-2 (A)(B) Korah son of Izhar was a Levite from the Kohathite clan. One day he called together Dathan, Abiram, and On[a] from the Reuben tribe, and the four of them decided to rebel against Moses. So they asked 250 respected Israelite leaders for their support, and together they went to Moses 3 and Aaron and said, “Why do you think you're so much better than everyone else? We're part of the Lord's holy people, and he's with all of us. What makes you think you're the only ones in charge?”
