NUMBERS. 15--36 Assembly kill him with stones out- 36 The whole Assembly, therefore, took him outside the camp and killed him with stones ;—so he died as the EVER- LIVING had commanded to Moses.

Israel nrhzrzh in make fringes. 37 The Even-r.1v1NG also spoke to Moses, commanding; Speak to the children of Israel 39 16 and say to them; Make fringes upon the borders of your clothing always, and place above the fringes cords of purple, so that the fringes may be like Howers for you to remember the commands of the sEveR—x.1vmo by, and to practise them, and that you may not wander after your hearts, and after your eyes, as you have wan- dered after them, but, instead, that you may remember and practise all My commands, and live holily to your Goo. I am your-Evmn·L1v1No Goo, Who brought you from the land of the Mitzeraim to be your Gov. I am the Evmz—1.1v11~zo Goo. Ely: iizlmii of liars};. Korah, the son of Itzhar, the son of

Kahath, the descendant of Levi, and Dathau and Abiram,sons of Aliab,and Ann, the son of Pelath, the son of Reuben, conspired and stood up to resist Moses, with a hundred and fifty others of the princes of the Parliament of the children of Israel, titled nobles of the nation; and they addressed Moses and Aaron and said to them; ‘You, assume too much to your#

selves ;—-for all the Parliament, all of them, are sacred, and the EVER- LIVING is among them. When Moses heard it, he bowed his

head, and spoke to Korah and all his band, saying; ‘I-n the morning JEHQVAH will

make known who are‘His, and sacred ; and who are to approach to Him, and whom He has chosen to approach to Himself. Let Korah and all his band take bowls for themselves, and put nre and sweet incense- into them, and the p men whom jnuovxm chooses Shall be the Sacred. You are pres And Moses Listen, now, sons of Levi. Was it too little for you that the GOD of Israel appointed you from among the families of Israel, to approach to Him, to perform the

services of the sanctuary ofthe EVER- Lxvmc, and to stand before the congregation to minister, and in- cluded you and all your brothers with you,—but would you demand the Priesthood also ? However, you, and all your associates, station yourselves before the Evun~L1v1-No together with Aaron.——What is.he that you should murmur against him? Then Moses sent to summons

Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Aliab, but they would not come, but replied—·-— ‘ We will not come! Is it nothing

that you have brought us up out of a land iiowing with milk and honey to kill us in this desert,——that you would dominate over us as a tyrant? You have brought us to no landvllowing with milk and honey! nor given us farms_ and _yineyards to possess! Would you dig out the eyes of these men ? We will not come! ' Moses was very angry at this and

said to ]1:movA11;.“ I have not taken as ai gift even an ass hom them, and I have not wronged one of them. Let

you and all your associates come before the Evan-r.1v1No,——you, and they, and Aaron to-morrow; and let each take a censer and put on it incense, and present it before the Even-r.rv1No,—each of the hundred and fifty, a censer; and you and Aaron, each a censer. So each took his censor; andthey

put nre in their censers, and odered incense upon it, and stationed them- selves at the door of the Hall of Assembly, with Moses and Aaron. Korah also collected all his asso- ciates with himself at the door of the Hall of Assembly, and the Glory of the-Ev1·:R~L1v1NG appeared to allcthe congregation. But the Evmz-Livmo spoke to

You shall be magnified in the midst of this Assembly,·—-·but I will consume them with might !’ They however fell upon their faces
