40 to be a1 memorial to the children of Israel athat no outsider, who is not a descendant of Aaron, should come near to offer incense before the Lord, that he might not become like Korah and his companions, just as the Lord had said to him through Moses.  

Complaints of the People

41 On the next day aall the congregation of the children of Israel complained against Moses and Aaron, saying, “You have killed the people of the Lord.”  
42 Now it happened, when the congregation had gathered against Moses and Aaron, that they turned toward the tabernacle of meeting; and suddenly athe cloud covered it, and the glory of the Lord appeared.  
43 Then Moses and Aaron came before the tabernacle of meeting.
44 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying,
45 “Get away from among this congregation, that I may consume them in a moment.” And they fell on their faces.
46 So Moses said to Aaron, “Take a censer and put fire in it from the altar, put incense on it, and take it quickly to the congregation and make1 atonement for them; afor wrath has gone out from the Lord. The plague has begun.”  
47 Then Aaron took it as Moses commanded, and ran into the midst of the assembly; and already the plague had begun among the people. So he put in the incense and made atonement for the people.
