Summary by Channie Koplowitz Stein
Our parsha begins by listing the main protagonists in a rebellion against the leadership of Moshe Rabbenu. First is the name of the instigator, Korach ben Yitzhar. His name is followed by the names of three other leaders of the rebellion, Dathan and Avirom, the sons of Eliav, and Ohn ben Peles of the tribe of Reuven. However, as the narrative continues, Ohn ben Peles is no longer mentioned and seems to have disappeared. What has happened to him that he no longer participates in this insurrection?
