Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Numbers 16:37-40

_ _ Speak unto Eleazar — He was selected lest the high priest might contract defilement from going among the dead carcasses.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Numbers 16:35-40.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Numbers 16:37

To Eleazer — Rather than to Aaron, partly because the troublesome part of the work was more proper for him, and partly lest Aaron should be polluted by going amongst those dead carcasses; for it is probable this fire consumed them, as lightning sometimes doth, others, by taking away their lives, and leaving their bodies dead upon the place. Out of the burning — From among the dead bodies of those men who were burnt. Yonder — Far from the altar and sanctuary, into an unclean place, where the ashes were wont to be cast: by which God shews his rejection on of their services. They are hallowed — By God's appointment, because they were presented before the Lord by his express order, Numbers 16:16-17.
