Deuteronomy 11:6: And what he did to Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, the son of Reuben, that the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up. Psalms 100: And they envied Moses in the camp of Aaron, the holy one of the Lord, the earth opened and swallowed up Dathan and covered the congregation of Abiram. Numbers 16: And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab. And they said, Is it not enough that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey, to kill us in the wilderness, that you should also prevail over us?! 2. Exodus 2: And he went out the second day, and behold, two Hebrew men were there, and he said to the wicked one, Why do you strike your fellow? And he said, "Do you say, 'Slay me,' as you killed the Egyptian?!' And Moses was afraid and said, 'The matter has indeed become known.' And Pharaoh heard this matter and sought to kill Moses - Rashi: Two Hebrew men - Dathan and Abiram. The Words of the Sages 13: As it is written here, "Here are two men," and it is written in our parsha, "Depart from the tents of these wicked men." Exodus 16: And they left some men there until morning, and they brought forth worms and became rotten. Rashi: And they left men – Dathan and Abiram. Numbers 14: And they said each to his brother [after the testimony of the spies], "Give head and return from Egypt." Yalkut HaReuben: And the Hebrew went home to send away his wife who had become defiled in Egypt, and the wife fled and told Aviram, the wife's brother. And in the morning Moses returned again to the Hebrew camp and found Dathan and Abiram quarreling over this divorce. And he went out to them and they answered him: Do you say, 'Slay me?!' From the Book of the Mighty God 19: When you understand the words of the sages [about the length of the persecution of Moses], you will know that ... when Israel was blessed with two men distinguished in rank, Moses and Aaron, also one against the other, because evil is always opposed to good, therefore there were among Israel two wicked men distinguished by evil, always opposing Moses and his Torah. ] 3. Exodus 5: And the officers of the children of Israel came and cried unto Pharaoh, saying, Why do you thus deal with thy servants? There is no straw given unto thy servants, and they say unto us, Make us bread? And behold, your servants are striking, and you have sinned against your people... and they struck Moses and Aaron standing before them as they were leaving Pharaoh, and they said to them, "May the Lord fear you and judge you, for you have made us abominable in the sight of Pharaoh." Rashi: "And they struck Moses and Aaron standing before them" - and our rabbis taught (Nedrim 6:11) that "all the hawks and the hawks" are Datan and Abiram, as it is said in our parashah, "And Datan and Abiram went out standing at the door of their tents." Shemot Rabba 5: "And they struck Moses and Aaron standing" - and the officers of Israel struck them as they were leaving Pharaoh. What is "standing"? Datan and Abiram were with them, as it is written in them, "They went out standing" and began to scold Moses. Lekutei Sichot 30/6: After the officers of the children of Israel said to Pharaoh, "Why do you do this to your servants?" ... Datan and Abiram struck Moses and Aaron, "and they said to them, The Lord will fear you and judge you' ... and it was found that Dathan and Abiram tried to benefit Israel, and in particular according to the interpretation that they were officers of the children of Israel who cried out against Pharaoh. Exodus 14:3: And Pharaoh said to the children of Israel, "They are confused in the land; the wilderness has closed in on them." - Targum Yonatan: And Pharaoh slandered Dathan and Abiram, the children of Israel, from Ishtayr in Egypt. - Mahril Diskin Exodus 5:14: The other officers who surrendered themselves to Israel and suffered beatings from them, and as it is written, "And the officers of the children of Israel shall be beaten," these were worthy to have the Holy Spirit rest upon them, as stated in Midrash Rabbah ... And Dathan and Abiram, who did not want to go out with Moses and Israel, as it is written, "And they shall go out from Ishtayr in the land of Egypt," at the time the merit of the commandment was suspended for them to cross the sea. Sanhedrin 12:1: And Moses arose and went to Datan and Aviram - Reish Lakish said: Hence, there is no dispute, as the great Rabbi said, whoever disputes transg...
