In the Writings it can also be a group of dancers or a group of people gathered together. Interpretation: Korah and his company challenged Moses and Aaron. Tradition sees their quarrel as one not for the sake of heaven. In the primary lessons: In social studies, companies employ workers, make products and earn money. In everyday life, "keep someone company" means stay with them so they are not lonely; pets are good company. Having "company" means visitors. In stories, "the company" can mean the group of people present. Phrases: keep someone company, in good company, have company, part company, a theatre company, a toy company.
