Levites Reject Moses' Authority
Numbers 16:2-3
[some Levites] rose up against Moses. With them were 250 Israelite men, well-known community leaders who had been appointed members of the council. They came as a group to oppose Moses and Aaron and said to them, "You have gone too far! The whole community is holy, every one of them, and the Lord is with them, Why then do you set yourselves above the Lord's assembly?

Numbers 16:4
When Moses heard this, he fell facedown...

Numbers 16:7
You Levites have gone too far!

When seeing a calamnithy of people rebelling, Moses fell facedown to the Lord! Moses then warned them that this GRUMBLING was against the Lord (see the next journal page)
