This site's exposition

Reuben, the eldest son of Israel

on Numbers 26:5-11

The roll of Reuben stops in the middle of itself to tell a story. Dathan and Abiram are entered in their place in the family tree, and the text says what became of them, that the earth opened her mouth and they became a sign. Verse 11 then adds a line the narrative of chapter 16 never gave, that the children of Korah died not. That house sings afterward, since 1 Chronicles 6:22 and 6:33 run Samuel and Heman out of it and eleven psalms carry the sons of Korah in their titles.
