Notes on this text (1)
- Ezra and Nehemiah form one book (2 Esdras) in this edition; the reader shows them as Ezra 1–10 and Nehemiah 1–13.
1 Καὶ λαβόντες οἱ δύο υἱοὶ Ἀαρὼν Ναδὰβ καὶ Ἀβιοὺδ, ἕκαστος τὸ πυρεῖον αὐτοῦ, ἐπέθηκαν ἐπʼ αὐτὸ πῦρ, καὶ ἐπέβαλον ἐπʼ αὐτὸ θυμίαμα, καὶ προσήνεγκαν ἔναντι Κυρίου πῦρ ἀλλότριον, ὃ οὐ προσέταξε Κύριος αὐτοῖς.
1 Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer, and put fire in it, and laid incense on it, and offered strange fire before Yahweh, which he had not commanded them.
2 Καὶ ἐξῆλθε πῦρ παρὰ Κυρίου, καὶ κατέφαγεν αὐτοὺς, καὶ ἀπέθανον ἔναντι Κυρίου.
2 Fire came out from before Yahweh, and devoured them, and they died before Yahweh.
3 Καὶ εἶπε Μωυσῆς πρὸς Ἀαρὼν, τοῦτό ἐστιν, ὃ εἶπε Κύριος, λέγων, ἐν τοῖς ἐγγίζουσί μοι ἁγιασθήσομαι, καὶ ἐν πάσῃ τῇ συναγωγῇ δοξασθήοσμαι· καὶ κατενύχθη Ἀαρών.
3 Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what Yahweh spoke of, saying, ‘I will show myself holy to those who come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified.’” Aaron held his peace.
4 Καὶ ἐκάλεσε Μωυσῆς τὸν Μισαδάη, καὶ τὸν Ἐλισαφὰν, υἱοὺς Ὀζιὴλ, υἱοὺς τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ τοῦ πατρὸς Ἀαρὼν, καὶ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, προσέλθατε καὶ ἄρατε τοὺς ἀδελφοὺς ὑμῶν ἐκ προσώπου τῶν ἁγίων ἔξω τῆς παρεμβολῆς.
4 Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, “Draw near, carry your brothers from before the sanctuary out of the camp.”
5 Καὶ προσῆλθον, καὶ ᾖραν αὐτοὺς ἐν τοῖς χιτῶσιν αὐτῶν ἔξω τῆς παρεμβολῆς, ὃν τρόπον εἶπε Μωυσῆς.
5 So they came near, and carried them in their tunics out of the camp, as Moses had said.
6 Καὶ εἶπε Μωυσῆς πρὸς Ἀαρὼν καὶ Ἐλεάζαρ καὶ Ἰθάμαρ τοὺς υἱοὺς αὐτοῦ τοὺς καταλελειμμένους, τὴν κεφαλὴν ὑμῶν οὐκ ἀποκιδαρώσετε, καὶ τὰ ἱμάτια ὑμῶν οὐ διαῤῥήξετε, ἵνα μὴ ἀποθάνητε, καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσαν τὴν συναγωγὴν ἔσται θυμός· οἱ δὲ ἀδελφοὶ ὑμῶν, πᾶς ὁ οἶκος Ἰσραὴλ, κλαύσονται τὸν ἐμπυρισμὸν, ὃν ἐνεπυρίσθησαν ὑπὸ Κυρίου.
6 Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, “Don’t let the hair of your heads go loose, and don’t tear your clothes, so that you don’t die, and so that he will not be angry with all the congregation; but let your brothers, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which Yahweh has kindled.
7 Καὶ ἀπὸ τὴς θύρας τῆς σκηνῆς τοῦ μαρτυρίου οὐκ ἐξελεύσεσθε, ἵνα μὴ ἀποθάνητε· τὸ ἔλαιον γὰρ τῆς χρίσεως, τὸ παρὰ Κυρίου, ἐφʼ ὑμῖν, καὶ ἐποίησαν κατὰ τὸ ῥῆμα Μωυσῆ.
7 You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting, lest you die; for the anointing oil of Yahweh is on you.” They did according to the word of Moses.
8 Καὶ ἐλάλησε Κύριος τῷ Ἀαρὼν, λέγων,
8 Then Yahweh said to Aaron,
9 οἶνον καὶ σίκερα οὐ πίεσθε σὺ καὶ οἱ υἱοί σου μετὰ σοῦ, ἡνίκα ἐὰν εἰσπορεύησθε εἰς τὴν σκηνὴν τοῦ μαρτυρίου, ἢ προσπορευομένων ὑμῶν πρὸς τὸ θυσιαστήριον, καὶ οὐ μὴ ἀποθάνητε· νόμιμον αἰώνιον εἰς τὰς γενεὰς ὑμῶν,
9 “You and your sons are not to drink wine or strong drink whenever you go into the Tent of Meeting, or you will die. This shall be a statute forever throughout your generations.
10 διαστεῖλαι ἀναμέσον τῶν ἁγίων καὶ τῶν βεβήλων, καὶ ἀναμέσον τῶν ἀκαθάρτων καὶ τῶν καθαρῶν,
10 You are to make a distinction between the holy and the common, and between the unclean and the clean.
11 καὶ συμβιβάξειν τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἰσραὴλ ἅπαντα τὰ νόμιμα, ἃ ἐλάλησε Κύριος πρὸς αὐτοὺς διὰ χειρὸς Μωυσῆ.
11 You are to teach the children of Israel all the statutes which Yahweh has spoken to them by Moses.”
12 Καὶ εἶπε Μωυσῆς πρὸς Ἀαρὼν καὶ πρὸς Ἐλεάζαρ καὶ Ἰθάμαρ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἀαρὼν τοὺς καταλειφθέντας, λάβετε τὴν θυσίαν τὴν καταλειφθεῖσαν ἀπὸ τῶν καρπωμάτων Κυρίου, καὶ φάγεσθε ἄζυμα παρὰ τὸ θυσιαστήριον· ἅγια ἁγίων ἐστί.
12 Moses spoke to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons who were left, “Take the meal offering that remains of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire, and eat it without yeast beside the altar; for it is most holy;
13 Καὶ φάγεσθε αὐτὴν ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ· νόμιμον γάρ σοι ἐστὶ, καὶ νόμιμον τοῖς υἱοῖς σου τοῦτο ἀπὸ τῶν καρπωμάτων Κυρίου· οὕτω γὰρ ἐντέταλταί μοι.
13 and you shall eat it in a holy place, because it is your portion, and your sons’ portion, of the offerings of Yahweh made by fire; for so I am commanded.
14 Καὶ τὸ στηθύνιον τοῦ ἀφορίσματος, καὶ τὸν βραχίονα τοῦ ἀφαιρέματος φάγεσθε ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ, σὺ καὶ οἱ υἱοί σου καὶ ὁ οἶκός σου μετὰ σοῦ· νόμιμον γὰρ σοι, καὶ νόμιμον τοῖς υἱοῖς σου ἐδόθη ἀπὸ τῶν θυσιῶν τοῦ σωτηρίου τῶν υἱῶν Ἰσραήλ.
14 The waved breast and the heaved thigh you shall eat in a clean place, you, and your sons, and your daughters with you: for they are given as your portion, and your sons’ portion, out of the sacrifices of the peace offerings of the children of Israel.
15 Τὸν βραχίονα τοῦ ἀφαιρέματος, καὶ τὸ στηθύνιον τοῦ ἀφορίσματος ἐπὶ τῶν καρπωμάτων τῶν στεάτωι· προσοίσουσιν ἀφόρισμα ἀφορίσαι ἔναντι Κυρίου· καὶ ἔσται σοι καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς σου καὶ ταῖς θυγατράσι σου μετὰ σοῦ νόμιμον αἰώνιον, ὃν τρόπον συνέταξε Κύριος τῷ Μωυσῇ.
15 They shall bring the heaved thigh and the waved breast with the offerings made by fire of the fat, to wave it for a wave offering before Yahweh. It shall be yours, and your sons’ with you, as a portion forever, as Yahweh has commanded.”
16 Καὶ τὸν χίμαρον τὸν περὶ τῆς ἁμαρτίας ζητῶν ἐξεζήτησε Μωυσῆς· καὶ ὁ δὲ ἐνπεπύριστο· καὶ ἐθυμώθη Μωυσῆς ἐπὶ Ἐλεάζαρ καὶ Ἰθάμαρ τοὺς υἱοὺς Ἀαρὼν τοὺς καταλελειμμένους, λέγων,
16 Moses diligently inquired about the goat of the sin offering, and, behold, it was burned. He was angry with Eleazar and with Ithamar, the sons of Aaron who were left, saying,
17 διατί οὐκ ἐφάγετε τὸ περὶ τῆς ἁμαρτίας ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ; ὅτι γὰρ ἅγια ἁγίων ἐστι, τοῦτο ἔδωκεν ὑμῖν φαγεῖν, ἵνα ἀφέλητε τὴν ἁμαρτίαν τῆς συναγωγῆς, καὶ ἐξιλάσησθε περὶ αὐτῶν ἔναντι Κυρίου.
17 “Why haven’t you eaten the sin offering in the place of the sanctuary, since it is most holy, and he has given it to you to bear the iniquity of the congregation, to make atonement for them before Yahweh?
18 Οὐ γὰρ εἰσήχθη τοῦ αἵματος αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ ἅγιον· κατὰ πρόσωπον ἔσω φάγεσθε αὐτὸ ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ, ὃν τρόπον μοι συνέταξε Κύριος.
18 Behold, its blood was not brought into the inner part of the sanctuary. You certainly should have eaten it in the sanctuary, as I commanded.”
19 Καὶ ἐλάλησεν Ἀαρὼν πρὸς Μωυσῆν, λέγων, εἰ σήμερον προσαγιόχασι τὰ περὶ τῆς ἁμαρτίας αὐτῶν, καὶ τὰ ὁλοκαυτώματα αὐτῶν ἔναντι Κυρίου, καὶ συμβέβηκέ μοι τοιαῦτα, καὶ φάγομαι τὰ περὶ τῆς ἁμαρτίας σήμερον, μὴ ἀρεστὸν ἔται Κυρίῳ;
19 Aaron spoke to Moses, “Behold, today they have offered their sin offering and their burnt offering before Yahweh; and such things as these have happened to me. If I had eaten the sin offering today, would it have been pleasing in Yahweh’s sight?”
20 Καὶ ἤκουσε Μωυσῆς, καὶ ἤρεσεν αὐτῷ.
20 When Moses heard that, it was pleasing in his sight.

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
And the heretics, indeed, who bring strange fire to the altar of God-- namely, strange doctrines--shall be burned up by the fire from heaven, as were Nadab and Abiud. But such as rise up in opposition to the truth, and exhort others against the Church of God, [shall] remain among those in hell (apud inferos), being swallowed up by an …
