¶ The .iij. Chapter.
These are the generations of Aaron and Moses / when the Lord spake unto Moses in mount Sinai / and these are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the eldest son / and Abihu Eleazar and Ithamar. These are the names of the sons of Aaron which were priests anointed and their hands filled to minister but Nadab and Abihu dyed before the Lord / as they brought strange fire before the Lord in the wilderness of Sinai / and had no children. And Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the sight of Aaron their father.
THese are the generacions of Aaron and Moses / when the Lorde spake vnto Moses in mount Sinai / and these are the names of the sonnes of Aaron: Nadab the eldest sonne / and Abihu Eleazar and Ithamar. These are the names of the sonnes of Aaron which were preastes anoynted and their handes fylled to mynistre but Nadab and Abihu dyed before the Lorde / as they broughte straunge fyre before the Lorde in the wyldernesse of Sinai / and had no childern. And Eleazar and Ithamar mynistred in the syght of Aaron their father.
And the Lord spake unto Moses saying bring the tribe of levi / and set them before Aaron the priest / and let them serve him and wait upon him & upon all the multitude / before the tabernacle of witness / to do the service of the habitation. And they shall wait upon all y• apparel of y• tabernacle of witness & upon y children of Israel / to do y service of the habitation. And thou shalt give the levites unto Aaron & his sons / for they are given unto him of y children of Israel. And thou shalt appoint Aaron & his sons to way te on their priests office: & the stranger y cometh nigh / shall dye for it.
