This story starts out a little unusual then others u might have heard of because hear you see Hashem telling Moshe to tell the rebels that to know if they have done the right thing or not to take frying pans and also bring a Korban and if the Korban light up than that means that they have not done something wrong and they will not be punished. Now you might be wondering wait what happens if they did something wrong? Well if that’s the case then they will know that they were sinning and they will be punished.
Now I know you might be wondering what happened to the rebels well unfortunately for them they did the wrong thing and Hashem punished them by having the ground open u and swallow them like a candy and all their belongings. But Korach got a especially bad punishment because he was the leader and pretty much started all of this. Here we also see the power of women because Auza was also one of the min leaders but he didn’t get punished because his wife convinced him that this was a bad idea and that he should stop and after a long time he finally came through and listened to his life.
But unfortunaty Hashem still didnt like that Bnie’Yisrael was supporting them so He wanted to punishe them but them out of no where Aharon steps betwwen them and the plage. Now i know you may be wondering how could he stop Hashem? Well his stck also helped him because it wasn’t just something hyou would find onn the ground it was special and throygh it grew 3 different types of plants. Isn’t that cool!!!!!! But wait how did he get that stick? I’m glad youh asked you see Hashem gave it to him Aharon is huge zadik and he deserved it.
But now that Hashem has seen all that Bnei’Yisrael can do has decided that whenever anyone does something bad they will get punished instantly so no one will ever again rebel against Moshe Aharon. So in a way this whole experience was a good thing because now the rules are more enforced and nothing severe will ever happen or at without an instant punishment.
So now that the rebels are taken care its a good time for the Jews because there are no wars going on and everything is peaceful. This will hopefully last a long time. Through all of this we see Moshe and Aharon’s great leadership. When they didn’t get angry or upset even though they knew that people were going against them, they still gave them as much chances as possible.
