Commentary on Numbers 26:9

The specific naming of Dathan and Abiram as those who 'strove against Moses and against Aaron in the company of Korah' serves as historical memorial of rebellion's consequences. Their inclusion in this census record decades later demonstrates that infamous sin leaves lasting marks on family history. Yet the preservation of Korah's line (verse 11) shows God's grace can transcend ancestral sin. This illustrates that individual rebellion brings personal judgment but doesn't necessarily curse entire family lines when descendants choose faithfulness.
