1These are the generations of Aaron and Moses at the time when Yahweh spoke with Moses on Mount Sinai.

2These are the names of Aaron’s sons: the firstborn Nadab, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

3These are the names of Aaron’s sons, the anointed priests, whose hands were filled to serve as priests.

4But Nadab and Abihu died before Yahweh when they offered strange fire before Yahweh in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no sons; and Eleazar and Ithamar served as priests in the presence of Aaron their father.
