Numbers 3:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² The names of the sons of Aaron were Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar. Nadab was the firstborn son. ³ Aaron anointed them, and he gave authority to them to work as priests. ⁴ But Nadab and Abihu fell down and died in front of the Lord. That happened when they offered strange fire to the Lord in the Sinai desert.^[a] They had no children. So only Eleazar and Ithamar worked as priests while their father Aaron was alive.
