Verse
Nu01-51c
discussing
that non-priests/levites inappropriately coming near Temple will die
states
And when the tabernacle is to set forward, the Levites shall take it down; and when the tabernacle is to be pitched, the Levites shall set it up; and the stranger who comes near shall be put to death
Rashi clarifies the underlined words
death
by referencing verse(s)
Nu16-35, Nu18-03
which states
######
Hence the Rashi comment:
As the underlined words show, the statement in Nu01-51c
that the stranger who comes near shall be put to death cross references
the death penalty mentioned in Nu18-03 for improper coming near which is
consistent with the death at the hands of God that befell the followers of Korach
who improperly came near to God.
