Korah (Edomite living at the time of the Patriarchs)

Korah was a Levite who led a rebellion against Moses and Aaron's leadership, joined by over two hundred fifty prominent Israelites who argued the whole community was holy and Moses had no special claim to authority. The ground opened and swallowed Korah and his family alive, and fire consumed the other rebels, a judgment severe enough that Israel complained about it the very next day.
