Numbers 16:29

If these men die the common death of all men ,.... Or "as every man dies" F18 כמות כל האדם "ut moriuntur omnes homines", Pagninus; "reliqui homines", Junius & Tremellius; "alii homines", Piscator. , or the generality of men, who for the most part die of one disease or another, as a fever, and the like, or through old age:

or if they be visited after the visitation of all men ; with such visitations as men in all ages for their sins are visited with, meaning public calamities, such as pestilence, famine, and sword:

then the Lord hath not sent me ; it may be concluded that I had no mission nor commission from the Lord to do what I have done, but may be reckoned a deceiver and an impostor; and I am content to be accounted so, should either of the above things be the case of these men.
