SEV Biblia, Chapter 16:19
Ya Coré había hecho juntar contra ellos toda la congregación a la puerta del tabernáculo del testimonio; entonces la gloria del SEÑOR apareció a toda la congregación.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 19. And Korah gathered all the congregation against them , etc.] Not his own company only, but as many of the whole congregation of Israel as he could get together, and especially the principal men; so that it seems there was a, general prevailing inclination in the people to take part with him against Moses and Aaron, who wished him success in his undertaking, and readily came together to animate and encourage him in it, and to see the issue of it. Jarchi suggests, that all night he was going to the several tribes, persuading them that it was not for his own private interest, but for the public good, that he acted against two men, who had taken to themselves, the one the kingdom, and the other the priesthood, and by this means got a great multitude together: unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation ; that is, before it, where Korah and his company stood, whose part they took, and had like to have suffered severely for it, had it not been for the interposition of Moses and Aaron: and the glory of the Lord appeared unto all the congregation ; the Shechinah, or divine Majesty, which dwelt between the cherubim in the most holy place, removed and came to the door of the tabernacle, where the people were assembled, in the sight of them, showing some visible token of his presence, though no similitude of himself was seen; or, however, he appeared in the cloud that was over the tabernacle, in which was seen a glory, a brightness and splendour, or such coruscations and flashes of lightning as were very unusual and amazing, and plainly showed the Lord was there; so Jarchi says, that he came in the pillar of cloud.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 16-22 - The same glory of the Lord that appeared to place Aaron in his offic at first, Le 9:23, now appeared to confirm him in it; and to confoun those who set up against him. Nothing is more terrible to those who ar conscious of guilt, than the appearance of the Divine glory. See ho dangerous it is to have fellowship with sinners, and to partake with them. Though the people had treacherously deserted them, yet Moses an Aaron approved themselves faithful shepherds of Israel. If others fai in their duty to us, that does not take away the obligations we ar under to seek their welfare. Their prayer was a pleading prayer, and i proved a prevailing one.
