Sons of Korah

Now Korah son of Izhar, son of Kohath, son of Levi, with Dathan and Abiram, sons of Eliab, and On son of Peleth, sons of Reuben, took two hundred fifty prominent Israelite men who were leaders of the community and representatives in the assembly, and they rebelled against Moses. (Numbers 16:1-2 CSB)

The earth opened its mouth and swallowed them and their households, all Korah's people, and all their possessions. (Numbers 16:32 CSB)

However, the sons of Korah did not die that day. (Numbers 26:11 NLT)

God was merciful and the descendants of Korah who survived. Not only did they survived, they were given the opportunity to write psalms 42, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 84, 85, 87, 88.
