Fire blazed out from God and consumed them-they died in > God's presence. > > 3 Moses said to Aaron, "This is what God meant when he said, > > To the one who comes near me, > I will show myself holy; > Before all the people, > I will show my glory." > > Aaron was silent. > > 4-5 Moses called for Mishael and Elzaphan, sons of Uzziel, Aaron's uncle. > He said, "Come. Carry > your dead cousins outside the camp, away from the Sanctuary." > They came and carried them off, outside the camp, just as Moses had > directed. > > 6-7 Moses then said to Aaron and his remaining sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, > "No mourning rituals for > you-unkempt hair, torn clothes-or you'll also die and > God will be angry with the whole congregation. Your relatives-all the > People of Israel, in fact-will > do the mourning over those God has destroyed by fire. > And don't leave the entrance to the Tent of Meeting lest you die, because > God's anointing oil is on > you." > > They did just as Moses said. > > 8-11 God instructed Aaron: "When you enter the Tent of Meeting, don't > drink wine or strong drink, > neither you nor your sons, lest you die. This is a fixed > rule down through the generations. Distinguish between the holy and the > common, between the ritually > clean and unclean. Teach the People of Israel all > the decrees that God has spoken to them through Moses." > > 12-15 Moses spoke to Aaron and his surviving sons, Eleazar and Ithamar, > "Take the leftovers of the > Grain-Offering from the Fire-Gifts for God and eat beside > the Altar that which has been prepared without yeast, for it is most holy. > Eat it in the Holy Place > because it is your portion and the portion of your > sons from the Fire-Gifts for God. This is what God commanded me. Also, you > and your sons and > daughters are to eat the breast of the Wave-Offering and the > thigh of the Contribution-Offering in a clean place. They are provided as > your portion and the > portion of your children from the Peace-Offerings presented > by the People of Israel. Bring the thigh of the Contribution-Offering and > the breast of the > Wave-Offering and the fat pieces of the Fire-Gifts and lift > them up as a Wave-Offering. This will be the regular share for you and > your children as ordered by > God." > > 16-18 When Moses looked into the matter of the goat of the > Absolution-Offering, he found that it > had been burned up. He became angry with Eleazar and Ithamar, > Aaron's remaining sons, and asked, "Why didn't you eat the > Absolution-Offering in the Holy Place > since it is most holy? The offering was given to you for > taking away the guilt of the community by making atonement for them before > God. Since its blood was > not taken into the Holy Place, you should have eaten > the goat in the Sanctuary as I commanded." > > 19 Aaron replied to Moses, "Look. They sacrificed their > Absolution-Offering and > Whole-Burnt-Offering before God today, and you see what has happened to > me-I've lost two sons. Do you think God would have been pleased if I had > gone ahead and eaten the > Absolution-Offering today?" > > 20 When Moses heard this response, he accepted it. > > Leviticus 11 > > Foods > 1-2God spoke to Moses and Aaron: "Speak to the People of Israel. Tell > them, Of all the animals on > Earth, these are the animals that you may eat: > > 3-8 "You may eat any animal that has a split hoof, divided in two, and > that chews the cud, but not > an animal that only chews the cud or only has a split > hoof. For instance, the camel chews the cud but doesn't have a split hoof, > so it's unclean. The rock > badger chews the cud but doesn't have a split hoof > and so it's unclean. The rabbit chews the cud but doesn't have a split > hoof so is unclean. The pig > has a split hoof, divided in two, but doesn't chew the > cud and so is unclean. You may not eat their meat nor touch their > carcasses; they are unclean to > you. > > 9-12 "Among the creatures that live in the water of the seas and streams, > you may eat any that have > fins and scales. But anything that doesn't have fins > and scales, whether in seas or streams, whether small creatures in the > shallows or huge creatures in > the deeps, you are to detest. Yes, detest them. Don't > eat their meat; detest their carcasses. Anything living in the water that > doesn't have fins and > scales is detestable to you. > > 13-19 "These are the birds you are to detest. Don't eat them. They are > detestable: eagle, vulture, > osprey, kite, all falcons, all ravens, ostrich, nighthawk, > sea gull, all hawks, owl, cormorant, ibis, water hen, pelican, Egyptian > vulture, stork, all herons, > hoopoe, bat. > > 20-23 "All flying insects that walk on all fours are detestable to you. > But you can eat some of > these, namely, those that have jointed legs for hopping > on the ground: all locusts, katydids, crickets, and grasshoppers. But all > the other flying insects > that have four legs you are to detest. > > 24-25 "You will make yourselves ritually unclean until evening if you > touch their carcasses. If you > pick up one of their carcasses you must wash your clothes > and you'll be unclean until evening. > > 26 "Every animal that has a split hoof that's not completely divided, or > that doesn't chew the cud > is unclean for you; if you touch the carcass of any > of them you become unclean. > > 27-28 "Every four-footed animal that goes on its paws is unclean for you; > if you touch its carcass > you are unclean until evening. If you pick up its carcass > you must wash your clothes and are unclean until evening. They are unclean > for you. > > 29-38 "Among the creatures that crawl on the ground, the following are > unclean for you: weasel, > rat, all lizards, gecko, monitor lizard, wall lizard, skink, > chameleon. Among the crawling creatures, these are unclean for you. If you > touch them when they are > dead, you are ritually unclean until evening. When > one of them dies and falls on something, that becomes unclean no matter > what it's used for, whether > it's made of wood, cloth, hide, or sackcloth. Put it > in the water-it's unclean until evening, and then it's clean. If one of > these dead creatures falls > into a clay pot, everything in the pot is unclean and > you must break the pot.

A spring, > though, or a cistern for collecting water remains clean, but if you touch > one of these carcasses > you're ritually unclean.
