Numbers 16 - 17
NumbersSteve Gregg
Numbers 16-17 explores the rebellion against Moses and Aaron led by Korah and his company. Despite the numerous signs and wonders God had shown the Israelites, some still chose to disregard His authority. The rebellion is a reminder that true spiritual leadership cannot be equated with institutional leadership, and that God had chosen Moses and Aaron as visible tokens of His approval. God's judgment swiftly falls upon the rebels, but a memorial with Aaron's rod serves as a lasting proof of his household's position.
