LEVITICUS 10.3. Then Moses said unto Aaron, This is it that the Lord spake saying, I will be Sanctified in them that come nigh me, and before all the People I will be glorified: And Aaron held his peace.
THESE words are the speech of Moses to Aaron his Brother, endeavouring to quiet and comfort his heart, which was (no question) exceedingly troubled upon that great and sore affliction that was upon him, in the strange death of his two sons, Nadab & Abihu: the story is this: After Aaron's sons were consecrated to the Priestly Office, they coming to attend this their Office, the very first day after their consecration to offer Incense unto God, they ventured to offer Incense with strange fire, with other fire than God had appointed. ⟨p. 2⟩Upon that the fire of Gods wrath broke out upon them, and slew them both presently in the very Sanctuary before all the people, for it was a solemn time: being the beginning of the solemn Consecration of the Priesthood. Upon this the spirit of Aaron could not but be exceedingly troubled, to see his two Sons thus struck. Now Moses comes to him and saith, This is that which the Lord spake, I will be Sanctified in them ••at draw nigh me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And upon this Aaron held his peace.
