Numbers 16:28-34

And Moses said, Hereby ye shall know that the LORD hath sent me to do all these works; for I have not done them of mine own mind.

Hereby ye shall know that the Lord hath sent me. The awful catastrophe of the earthquake which, as predicted by Moses, swallowed up those impious rebels in a living tomb, gave the divine attestation to the mission of Moses, and struck the spectators with solemn awe.

Verse 30. They go down quick into the pit. "Quick" is an old English word, which has lost the meaning attached to it at the time our translation was made.

Psalms 106:16)].
