Bp. Hall says, "It is a dangerous thing, in the service of God, to decline from his institutions; we have to do with a God, who is wise to prescribe his own worship - just to require what he has prescribed - and powerful to avenge what he has not prescribed.Reciprocal Exodus 8:27 - as he shall; 19:22 - the priests; 30:20 - die not; Leviticus 1:7 - fire; 8:35 - keep; Numbers 4:18 - General; 20:11 - smote; 1 Samuel 6:19 - he smote; 2 Samuel 6:7 - God smote; 1 Chronicles 6:3 - Nadab; 13:10 - there he died; 23:13 - to burn incense; 24:1 - The sons; Job 36:14 - They die; Psalm 119:120 - My flesh; Ezekiel 22:26 - put no; Acts 5:1 - General; 1 Corinthians 11:27 - whosoever; Habakkuk 2:2 - every Verse 2 fire Leviticus 9:24, 16:1; Numbers 3:3, 3:4, 16:35, 26:61; 2 Samuel 6:7; 2 Kings 1:10, 1:12; 1 Chronicles 24:2 they died Numbers 3:3, 3:4, 16:32, 16:33, 16:49, 26:61; 1 Samuel 6:19; 1 Chronicles 13:10, 15:13; Acts 5:5, 5:10; 1 Corinthians 10:11
This fire, which destroyed the sacrificers, came from the same source with that which had consumed the sacrifices. See note on Leviticus 9:24.
They died.
The wages of sin is death.
They died suddenly.
They died before the Lord; that is, before the vail that covered the mercy-seat.
They died by fire, as by fire they sinned.
The fire did not burn them to ashes, as it had done the sacrifices, nor so much as singe their coats - 10:5 but struck them dead in an instant. By these different effects of the same fire, we learn that it was no common fire, but kindled by the breath of the Almighty.

So St. Jerome informs us, that sicera in Hebrew denotes any inebriating liquor, whether made of corn, the juice of apples, honey, dates, or any other fruit. These different kinds of liquors are described by Pliny, who calls then vina factitia. One of the four prohibited drinks among the Mohammedans in India is called sakar, which denotes inebriating liquor in general, but especially date wine.it shall be Leviticus 3:17 Reciprocal Genesis 40:11 - pressed; Luke 21:34 - your hearts Verse 10 Leviticus 11:47, 20:25, 20:26; Jeremiah 15:19; Ezekiel 22:26, 44:23; Titus 1:15; 1 Peter 1:14-16 Reciprocal Genesis 7:2 - not; Leviticus 13:3 - shall look; 14:57 - teach; 1 Chronicles 23:13 - sanctify; Proverbs 31:4 - General; Isaiah 28:7 - erred; Ezekiel 42:20 - a separation; Haggai 2:11 - General; Acts 11:8 - unclean Verse 11 Deuteronomy 24:8, 33:10; 2 Chronicles 17:9, 30:22; Nehemiah 8:2, 8:8, 9:13, 9:14; Jeremiah 2:8, 18:18; Malachi 2:7; Matthew 28:20; Acts 20:27; 1 Thessalonians 4:2 Reciprocal Leviticus 23:14 - it shall be; 2 Chronicles 15:3 - a teaching; 33:8 - by the hand; 34:14 - Moses; Nehemiah 8:7 - caused; Ezekiel 44:23 - General; Haggai 2:11 - General Verse 12 Take Leviticus 2:1-16, 6:15-18, 7:9, 21:22; Exodus 29:2; Numbers 18:9, 18:10; Ezekiel 44:29 for it is most Leviticus 21:22 Reciprocal Exodus 28:1 - Nadab; 29:32 - Aaron; Leviticus 2:3 - the remnant; 2:4 - the oven; 6:16 - shall it; 1 Chronicles 6:3 - Nadab; 24:2 - Eleazar; 2 Chronicles 31:14 - the most; Ezra 7:5 - Eleazar Verse 13 ye shall Numbers 18:10 for so I Leviticus 2:3, 6:16 Reciprocal Exodus 29:25 - offering; 29:33 - eat those; Numbers 5:9 - offering; 15:3 - will make; 18:9 - every meat; 2 Chronicles 31:14 - the most; Ezekiel 42:13 - they be holy Verse 14 Leviticus 7:29-34, 9:21; Exodus 29:24-28; Numbers 18:11; John 4:34 Reciprocal Exodus 29:22 - right shoulder; 29:28 - Aaron's; Leviticus 7:32 - General; 7:34 - the wave; 22:13 - as in her; 23:11 - General; 23:20 - holy to; Numbers 18:8 - the charge; 1 Samuel 2:28 - did I give; Ezekiel 42:13 - they be holy Verse 15 heave shoulder Leviticus 7:29, 7:30, 7:34 for ever 7:34; Genesis 13:15, 17:8, 17:13, 17:17; 1 Corinthians 9:13, 9:14 Reciprocal Exodus 29:27 - the breast; 29:28 - Aaron's; Leviticus 23:20 - holy to; Numbers 6:20 - the priest shall; 18:8 - the charge; 1 Samuel 2:28 - did I give Verse 16 the goat Leviticus 6:26, 6:30, 9:3, 9:15 angry Exodus 32:19-22; Numbers 12:3; Matthew 5:22; Mark 3:5, 10:14; Ephesians 4:26 Reciprocal Exodus 29:34 - burn; Leviticus 3:12 - a goat; 7:17 - burnt; Numbers 31:14 - wroth; 2 Kings 13:19 - was wroth; 1 Chronicles 6:3 - Nadab; 6:50 - Eleazar; Ezra 7:5 - Eleazar Verse 17 Wherefore Leviticus 6:26, 6:29, 7:6, 7:7 to bear 16:22, 22:16; Exodus 28:38, 28:43; Numbers 18:1; Isaiah 53:6-11; Ezekiel 4:4-6; 18:19, 18:20; John 1:29; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Habakkuk 3:1; 1 Peter 2:24 Reciprocal Leviticus 5:15 - in the; 7:18 - bear; 8:31 - eat it; 14:13 - as the sin; 24:9 - they shall; Numbers 18:9 - every sin; 18:10 - In the; 1 Chronicles 23:13 - sanctify; Ezra 2:63 - should not; Nehemiah 7:65 - that they should; Ezekiel 42:13 - they be holy Verse 18 the blood Leviticus 6:30 as I commanded 6:26, 6:30 Reciprocal 5:15 - in the; 1 Chronicles 23:13 - sanctify; Ezra 2:63 - should not; Nehemiah 7:65 - that they should Verse 19 this day Leviticus 9:8, 9:12; Habakkuk 3:1, 3:1 should Deuteronomy 12:7, 26:14; 1 Samuel 1:7, 1:8; Isaiah 1:11, 1:15; Jeremiah 6:20, 14:12; Hosea 9:4; Malachi 1:10, 1:13, 2:13; Philippians 4:4 Reciprocal Leviticus 7:18 - it shall; Acts 11:18 - they held Verse 20 he was content 2 Chronicles 30:18-20; Zechariah 7:8, 7:9; Matthew 12:3-7, 12:20 Reciprocal 1 Chronicles 6:49 - Aaron; Acts 11:18 - they held
