Numbers 26:61 In-Context

59 The name of Amram's wife was Joch'ebed the daughter of Levi, who was born to Levi in Egypt; and she bore to Amram Aaron and Moses and Miriam their sister.
60 And to Aaron were born Nadab, Abi'hu, Elea'zar and Ith'amar.
61 But Nadab and Abi'hu died when they offered unholy fire before the LORD.
62 And those numbered of them were twenty-three thousand, every male from a month old and upward; for they were not numbered among the people of Israel, because there was no inheritance given to them among the people of Israel.
63 These were those numbered by Moses and Elea'zar the priest, who numbered the people of Israel in the plains of Moab by the Jordan at Jericho.
