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 beLeviticus 3:17ReciprocalGenesis 40:11 - pressed; Luke 21:34 - your heartsVerse 10Leviticus 11:47, 20:25, 20:26; Jeremiah 15:19; Ezekiel 22:26, 44:23; Titus 1:15; 1 Peter 1:14-16ReciprocalGenesis 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 - uncleanVerse 11Deuteronomy 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 4:2ReciprocalLeviticus 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 - GeneralVerse 12TakeLeviticus 2:1-16, 6:15-18, 7:9, 21:22; Exodus 29:2; Numbers 18:9, 18:10; Ezekiel 44:29for it is mostLeviticus 21:22ReciprocalExodus 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 - EleazarVerse 13ye shallNumbers 18:10for so ILeviticus 2:3, 6:16ReciprocalExodus 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 holyVerse 14Leviticus 7:29-34, 9:21; Exodus 29:24-28; Numbers 18:11; John 4:34ReciprocalExodus 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 holyVerse 15heave shoulderLeviticus 7:29, 7:30, 7:34for ever7:34; Genesis 13:15, 17:8, 17:13, 17:17; 1 Corinthians 9:13, 9:14ReciprocalExodus 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 giveVerse 16the goatLeviticus 6:26, 6:30, 9:3, 9:15angryExodus 32:19-22; Numbers 12:3; Matthew 5:22; Mark 3:5, 10:14; Ephesians 4:26ReciprocalExodus 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 - EleazarVerse 17WhereforeLeviticus 6:26, 6:29, 7:6, 7:7to bear16:22, 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 2:24ReciprocalLeviticus 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 holyVerse 18the bloodLeviticus 6:30as I commanded6:26, 6:30Reciprocal5:15 - in the; 1 Chronicles 23:13 - sanctify; Ezra 2:63 - should not; Nehemiah 7:65 - that they shouldVerse 19this dayLeviticus 9:8, 9:12; Habakkuk 3:1, 3:1shouldDeuteronomy 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 4:4ReciprocalLeviticus 7:18 - it shall; Acts 11:18 - they heldVerse 20he was content2 Chronicles 30:18-20; Zechariah 7:8, 7:9; Matthew 12:3-7, 12:20Reciprocal1 Chronicles 6:49 - Aaron; Acts 11:18 - they held
