The earth opened and swallowed up Dathan, and covered the company of Abiram.
The ground split open to swallow Dathan and closed over the company gathered with Abiram. This judgment came after envy against Moses and Aaron had risen among the people inside the camp. At the same time fire broke out and burned up the wicked joined with that rebellious company.
The event belongs to the recorded account of Israel's experience in the wilderness journey. That whole history stands as a lesson, example, and solemn warning for God's people living in the last days. Because of its warning force it is to be studied regularly and heeded.
