THE FORMAL beginning of the Levitical priesthood and the sacrificial system is the focus of this week’s study.
After going through the rules for the sacrifices in our last couple of studies, this week we discuss the formal ordination of Aaron and his sons.
Sadly for Nadab and Abihu, their term as priests didn’t last very long. Leviticus 10 describes their destruction by God for offering unauthorized (or “strange”) fire before the Lord. To be honest, their specific transgression is not named in the Bible; it may be that they hadn’t prepared incense according to the instructions of Exodus 30:34-38, or it may be that they weren’t even supposed to burn incense since that task had been appointed to Aaron (Ex. 30:7-8). Perhaps Aaron’s sons thought that burning some unauthorized incense would curry God’s favor and earn them a promotion ahead of their father.
Whatever the reason, it was a hard lesson that God is to be respected and His will is to be done—a lesson the modern church seems to take all too lightly.

I love listening to both of you... I've learnt a lot as a believer which has been a great blessing me. I've also been, and still share your materials with all I know who cares to listen. I happened on a Five in Ten video some years ago while I was still in Cameroon and the journey has been the most profitable in my walk as a believer in Yeshua; I am confident and humbled as I now discuss those "weird and obscured" bible portions. The stories told about the various tribal gods in and around my region of origin, some of whom are described as chimeras made perfect sense when I started watching your teachings. It makes it easy for me to have a conversation about Christ with someone who identifies as a traditionalist and would dismiss the believe in Yeshua as a foreign religion. You're my best couple! Thank you both🙏
