Bible Commentary for Leviticus 10:1

Wesley's Notes for Leviticus 10:1


10:1 Strange fire - Fire so called, because not taken from the altar, as it ought, but from some common fire. Before the Lord - Upon the altar of incense. Which he commanded not - Not commanding may be here put for forbidding, as it is, #Jer 32:35|. Now as this was forbidden implicitly; #Lev 6:12|, especially when God himself made a comment upon that text, and by sending fire from heaven declared of what fire he there spake; so it is more than probable it was forbidden expressly, though that be not here mentioned, nor was it necessary it should be.
