Exegesis
The Hifil imperative heromu {הֵרֹמּוּ | hē·rō·mū} ‘separate yourselves’ directs Moses and Aaron to distance themselves from mitoch ha’edah hazot {מִתּוֹךְ הָעֵדָה הַזֹּאֶת | mi·tō·kh hā·’ê·ḏāh ha·zō·’êt} ‘the midst of this assembly’, marking a spatial boundary for judgment.
In context — Numbers 16:45
And He said to Moses and Aaron, “Separate yourselves from among this assembly, and I will consume them in a moment.” Then they fell on their faces.
