A creation, an unprecedented thing (feminine noun used in Numbers 16 for God's unique judgment)
This feminine noun appears in Numbers 16:30, during Korah's rebellion. Moses declares: 'But if Yahweh creates a creation' (im-beri'ah yivra Yahweh)—meaning if God does something unprecedented—then the earth will swallow the rebels. The word comes from 'bara' (to create), used of divine creation in Genesis 1. Here it means an unparalleled, preternatural act demonstrating divine judgment. The cognate accusative construction ('creates a creation') emphasizes the novelty and miraculous nature of what is about to happen—the ground opening to swallow Korah alive.
