Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(8) And the Lord spake unto Aaron.--As half of the staff of the priesthood had thus been struck down, and the other half were not allowed to mourn over the departed, the chief of the survivors might have thought that God was altogether displeased with the newly created pontificate. To comfort him, therefore, as well as to restore the prestige of this sacred office in the eyes of the people, who had witnessed the disobedience and punishment of the spiritual functionaries, the Lord, who hitherto made all such communications to Moses, now honours Aaron with speaking to him immediately. TO ABSTAIN FROM WINE (verses 8-11). The law given to Aaron (some manuscripts read Moses) against the use of wine by the priests during their ministrations, by its juxtaposition with what has gone before, has led to the probable supposition that Nadab and Abihu had acted under the excitement of intoxicating drink. It is possible that the sacrificial meals on the peace offerings had begun, and that at the same time that the congregation was feasting, the two priests had refreshed themselves with wine after their long service. The special ceremonial meal of the priests had not yet been eaten.Parallel Commentaries ...HebrewThen the LORDיְהוָ֔ה (Yah·weh)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 3069: YHWHsaidוַיְדַבֵּ֣ר (way·ḏab·bêr)Conjunctive waw | Verb - Piel - Consecutive imperfect - third person masculine singularStrong's 1696: To arrange, to speak, to subduetoאֶֽל־ (’el-)PrepositionStrong's 413: Near, with, among, toAaron,אַהֲרֹ֖ן (’a·hă·rōn)Noun - proper - masculine singularStrong's 175: Aaron -- an elder brother of MosesJump to PreviousAaron Speaketh
