2
Then flames leaped from the Lord's presence and burned them to death before the Lord.
Leviticus 10:2 In-Context
1
Aaron’s sons Nadab and Abihu took their censers, put fire in them and added incense; and they offered unauthorized fire before the LORD, contrary to his command.
2
So fire came out from the presence of the LORD and consumed them, and they died before the LORD.
3
Moses then said to Aaron, “This is what the LORD spoke of when he said: “ ‘Among those who approach me I will be proved holy; in the sight of all the people I will be honored.’ ” Aaron remained silent.
4
Moses summoned Mishael and Elzaphan, sons of Aaron’s uncle Uzziel, and said to them, “Come here; carry your cousins outside the camp, away from the front of the sanctuary.”
5
So they came and carried them, still in their tunics, outside the camp, as Moses ordered.
