‏ Numbers 16:33

33 And they descended alive, the ground closing around them, into the underworld, and they perished from the midst of the multitude. ^{▼▼16:33Scripture is not saying that they went to Hell alive, without ever dying, but rather that they were alive when swallowed up by the ground. Thereafter they died, and perhaps they, or some of theirs, went to Hell.(Conte)}
