רב לכם בני לוי. וזה פירושו שאמר להם המעט ואמר הכתוב ויאמר משה אל קרח כי הדבור הראשון עם קרח ועם כל עדתו וזה עם הלוים: YE TAKE TOO MUCH UPON YOU, YE SONS OF LEVI. The meaning of our clause is found in the following words of Moses: Is it but a small thing unto you (v. 9).28Verses 9 and 10 explain what Moses meant by ye take too much upon you. Scripture says, And Moses said unto Korah (v. 8),29Verse 5 reads, And he [Moses] spoke unto Korah. Thus And Moses said unto Korah appears redundant. Hence I.E.’s comment. for the first statement30Verse 5. was addressed to Korah and to all of his company. However, this one was addressed to the Levites.
