I saw this story after Shabbat today...

All I can say is WOW.... I have heard of sinkholes before, but as you say this sounds like an example of what happened to the wicked camp of Korach in the Torah. He and all his collaborators were eaten by the mouth of the earth which opened up to swallow them.

The earth opened its mouth and swallowed them and their households, and all the people who were with Korach, and the entire wealth. (Bamidbar 16:32)

Where is the uplifting message associated with Korach being swallowed up by the earth? We find ourselves looking down after reading about that tragic incident. What can one say that will lift our eyes with hope to the Heavens?

Somebody once asked Rabbi Avigdor Miller ztl. why the “mouth” of the earth swallowed up Korach and his company and in a heartbeat he responded, “Because he opened up his big mouth, the earth opened its mouth and swallowed him up!”
