Who are Korah, Dathan, and Abiram, and why did they revolt against Moses?

Fr. Mike Schmitz 1:02
as well as praying through Psalm 97. The book of Numbers, chapter 16. Revolt of Korah, Dathan, and Abiram. Now Korah, the son of Izar, son of Kohath, son of Levi, and Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab, and On, the son of Pelleth, sons of Reuben, took men and they rose up before Moses with a number of the sons of Israel, 250 leaders of the congregation chosen from the assembly, well-known men. And they assembled themselves together against Moses and against Aaron and said to them, you have gone too far for all the congregation are holy, every one of them. And the Lord is among them. Why then do you exalt yourselves above the assembly of the Lord?

How did Moses respond to the rebellion against him and Aaron?

Fr. Mike Schmitz 1:45
When Moses heard it, he fell on his face and he said to Korah and all his company, in the morning, the Lord will show who is his and who is holy and will cause him to come near to him. Him who he will choose, he will cause to come near to him. Do this, take censers, Korah and all his company, put fire in them and put incense upon them before the Lord tomorrow. And the man whom the Lord chooses shall be the holy one. You have gone too far, sons of Levi. And Moses said to Korah, hear now, you sons of Levi, is it too small a thing for you that the God of Israel has separated you from the congregation of Israel to bring you near to himself, to do service in the tabernacle of the Lord and to stand before the congregation to minister to them?
Fr. Mike Schmitz 2:32
And would you seek the priesthood also? Therefore, it is against the Lord that you and all your company have gathered together. What is Aaron that you murmur against him? And Moses sent to call Dathan and Abiram, the sons of Eliab. And they said, We will not come up. Is it a small thing that you have brought us up out of a land flowing with milk and honey to kill us in the wilderness, that you must also make yourself a prince over us? Moreover, you have not brought us into a land flowing with milk and honey, nor given us inheritance of fields and vineyards. Will you put out the eyes of these men? We will not come up. And Moses was very angry and said to the Lord, Do not respect their offering. I have not taken one donkey from them, and I have not harmed one of them. And Moses said to Korah, Be present, you and all your company, before the Lord, you and they, and Aaron, tomorrow.
Fr. Mike Schmitz 3:31
And let every one of you take his censer and put incense upon it, and every one of you bring before the Lord his censer, two hundred and fifty censers. you also and Aaron each his censer. So every man took his censer, and they put fire in them, and laid incense upon them, and they stood at the entrance of the tent of meeting with Moses and Aaron. Then Korah assembled all the congregation against them at the entrance of the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord appeared to all the congregation. Korah, Dathan, and Abiram are punished. And the Lord said to Moses and to Aaron, Separate yourselves from among this congregation that I may consume them in a moment.
