Numbers 11:3

And he called the name of the place Taberah
That is, "burning": Moses called it so; or it may be rendered impersonally, it was called F19 so in later times by the people:

because the fire of the Lord burnt among them;
to perpetuate the, memory of this kind of punishment for their sins, that it might be a terror and warning to others; and this history is indeed recorded for our caution in these last days, that we murmur not as these Israelites did, and were destroyed of the destroyer, ( 1 Corinthians 10:10 1 Corinthians 10:11 ) .
