See note on Lev 9:24. They died. The wages of sin is death. They died suddenly. They died before the Lord; that is, before the vail that covered the mercy-seat. They died by fire, as by fire they sinned. The fire did not burn them to ashes, as it had done the sacrifices, nor so much as singe their coats ( Lev 10:5) but struck them dead in an instant. By these different effects of the same fire, we learn that it was no common fire, but kindled by the breath of the Almighty. Isa 30:33 Leviticus 10:3
