Korah - Though he became a rebel against God and Moses, (see Numbers 16:1, etc)., yet Moses, in his great impartiality, inserts his name among those of his other progenitors.

And the sons of Izhar; (h) Korah, and Nepheg, and Zichri.
(h) Moses and he were cousins, whose rebellion was punished in (Numbers 16:1).

And the sons of Izhar, Korah, and Nepheg, and Zichri. These seem to be mentioned for the sake of Korah, concerning whom is a remarkable history in the following book; for the other two are nowhere else spoken of.
