Context of Leviticus 10:4
2And there went out fire from the LORD, and devoured them, and they died before the LORD. 3Then Moses said to Aaron, This is what the LORD spoke, saying, I will be sanctified in them that come near me, and before all the people I will be glorified. And Aaron held his peace. And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said to them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp. 5So they went near, and carried them in their coats out of the camp; as Moses had said. 6And Moses said to Aaron, and to Eleazar and to Ithamar, his sons, Uncover not your heads, neither rend your clothes; lest ye die, and lest wrath come upon all the people: but let your brethren, the whole house of Israel, bewail the burning which the LORD hath kindled.

- Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 3-7Verses 3-7 The most quieting considerations under affliction are fetched from the word of God. What was it that God spake?

- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 4-54-5.
