Strange fire

The exact nature of the strange fire is debated, but it is said by some that it could be that Nadab and Abihu were not burning the incense with fire carried from the altar where sacrifice were burnt up, as specified in Leviticus 16:12.[1]

All the things brought to the altar were freewill offerings in order to be consumed and many think that that consumption was by fire as if all those things that were brought were then burned up. Considering how hard life was and how much complaining was recorded in the text there should have been considerably more objection to the absolute loss of possessions that had to be occurring with the burning up of so many of their meager resources.

Historically it does not make sense that so many city-states had complex systems of welfare to provide for their people from Babylon to Egypt or Sumer and the Israelites were constructing a system where you burned up every thing that those other city states distributed amongst the needy and poor. If we examine some of these words in the context of human nature and the problems in the world at the time.

Fire that burns the soul

Is Strange fire and even the word fire[2] metaphors?

Fire as we use the term is a process. It is a chemical conversion, using oxygen to combine with the item being burnt, and the result is heat, hot gases (such as carbon dioxide) and ashes.

Strange[3] can mean that which is foreign or that which is unrecognized, but also a strange woman or harlot. The theme of a harlot and whoredom as well as national adultery.

The word fire in the Old Testament is אֵשׂ‎ ‘esh translated fire some 373 times but the same letters is translated as an adverb into the words can and there once each.[4]

In the kingdom of God, purity is recognized, and impurity (evil, corruption) is unrecognized. The unrecognized items must be rejected as estranged from the processes of God and His righteousness.

In Leviticus 10:1 "And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took either of them his censer, and put fire therein, and put incense thereon, and offered[5] strange[3] fire[2] before the LORD, which he commanded them not."

Strange or adulterous

The Hebrew word we see translated strange which is in the phrase strange fire is zuwr (זוּר‎)[3] spelled with the letters ZayinVavReish. Zuwr as a verb and "primitive root word" it is primarily defined as "to be strange". But if we explore the way zuwr is translated in other verses we can see "strange woman" in Proverbs[6] because zuwr is also defined as "prostitute, harlot".

Nadab and Abihu as the sons of Aaron held a high position in the Church in the wilderness. They would eventually receive the heave offering and also deal with the wave offering. These were important to the welfare of all of Israel. The term harlot will be equated with an apostate church because of the adultery and whoredom of the nation.

Strange or oppressed

The Hebrew word zuwr translated strange is identical to another Hebrew word also spelled ZayinVavReish zuwr (זוּר‎) [7] but is defined as "to press, squeeze, crush, press down and out" and is translated closed, thrust … together, crush. This verb zuwr is a primitive root that can be compared to the word tsowq (צוֹק)‎ and‎ tsuwqah (צוקה)[8] and as a noun is defined as "constraint, distress... anguish". The noun tsowq is from the verb tsuwq (צוּק)‎[9] and translated distress, oppressor, and sore. It again spelled the same (TzadikVavKuf) as tsuwq‎ (צוּק)‎[10] meaning "to pour out, melt". It has been associated with the term meaning anguish and oppression.

Fire or foundation

The word fire in the text is esh(אֵשׂ‎)[2] translated fire over 370 times. While it contains only two letters, the AlefShin, it is the same as the Aramaic esh(אֵשׂ‎)[11] translated "flame" and the adverb esh(אֵשׂ‎)[12] meaning "there is, there are". The letters AlefShin esh(אֵשׂ‎)[13] also appear three times in the Book of Ezra as an abbreviation for the word foundation[14] where it is the bases of "building the rebellious(מָרָד‎)[15] and the bad(evil) (בִּאוּשׁ‎)[16] city".

Jeremiah 6:29 "The bellows are burned, the lead is consumed of the fire(אֶשָּׁה)‎ ‘eshshah[17] <0800 ; the founder melteth in vain: for the wicked are not plucked away."

Numbers 3:4 And Nadab and Abihu died before the LORD, when they offered strange[3] fire[2] before the LORD, in the wilderness of Sinai, and they had no children: and Eleazar and Ithamar ministered in the priest’s office in the sight of Aaron their father.

The word censor contains a double Tav.

Numbers 26:61 And Nadab and Abihu died, when they offered strange[3] fire[2] before the LORD.

Isaiah 1:7 Your country [is] desolate, your cities [are] burned with fire <0784>: your land, strangers <02114> devour it in your presence, and [it is] desolate, as overthrown by strangers <02114>.

Jude 1:7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.


In the kingdom of God, processes happen by way of using our conscience to discern that which is right and good. Using the Law of God as a basis, the process results in a decision. The goodness of the Father in heaven requires that each of His servants must likewise decide according to that which is good. If a process of conversion of an offering from its grantor to its recipient is well-pleasing to God, then it is a good process, which should be called holy fire, but anything other than that which pleases God is strange fire.

If we read in the Bible on the topic of justice, it is clear that certain things are not right and good. For example, taking bribes destroys justice. Therefore, a bribe brought to the altar of Christ is an example of strange fire.


Olah (Burnt Offering) Minchah (Grain Offering) Hata-at (Purification Offering or Sin Offering) Asham (Reparation Offering)

Shelem Zevah (Peace Offering)[18]

In Exodus 35 verse 3 we see, "Ye shall kindle no fire throughout your habitations upon the sabbath day."

To "kindle a" fire is normally the Hebrew term בָּעַר‎ ba‘ar[19]. The letters BeitAyinReish בַּעַר‎ ba‘ar can also mean stupid and brutish even a foolish (person)[20] and even "consume" or "to be grazed". But the term ba‘ar(בָּעַר)‎ which we see translated "kindle" appears in the text as תְבַעֲר֣וּ ṯəḇa‘ărū one time which is TavBeitAyinReishVav.

The term for dwelling is מוֹשָׁב mowshab or more often just משׁב‎ moshab MemShinBeit[21] which is from the primitive root יָשַׁב‎ yashab[22] which can mean dwell or just "to sit or sit down" but the phrase "throughout your habitations" is produced by the term that appears in the text as מֹשְׁבֹֽתֵיכֶ֑ם mōwōšəḇōṯêḵem which is MemShinBeitTavYodKafMem.

Remembering that the Sabbath was not a day but the way of working first: we should ask is the prohibition about not kindling a fire (לֹא־תְבַעֲר֣וּ אֵ֔שׁ) or was it about "not being stupid and brutish in all your dwellings or sitting down in the way of the Sabbath? What do we need to learn about Leaven, Breeches or about eating Milk and meat and about Strange fire?

Exodus 30:9 ???

Another theory

There is also Leviticus 10:9 "Do not drink wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tabernacle of the congregation, lest ye die: [it shall be] a statute for ever throughout your generations:" and some speculate that the two men came into the tabernacle drinking alcohol.


The Hebrew word for woman is ishah, spelled Aleph, Shin, Hey. Remove the hey and, once again, you have esh or ish, meaning fire.
The Goddess of Sumer to whom the people sacrificed was able to provide welfare for the people from her temple in time of need. But those systems were a snare and a trap.


Fire and Wife

The same letters in Hebrew translated fire(אִשָּׁה AlefShinHey),[23] is also translated wife(אִשָּׁה)[24].

"Istar (INANNA) was to them a divine “mother,” the goddess who had begotten mankind, and who cared for their welfare with a mother’s love.”

"Isha is the Aeldari goddess of the harvest, fertility, life, healing and growth and the divine mother in Aeldari Mythology." All these names of goddesses began with the word for fire.

The story of Isis and Osiris (Ausar) as Twin Flames shows her to be not only a loving wife and mother. Isis also partakes of the fiery fierceness of Sakhmet. “Sakhmet, the fiery goddess” of the ancient Egyptian religion was the lion-headed fire (or sun) goddess associated with war, pestilence, and flames.

What is the significance of this similarity and the equating of fire and women to the welfare of society and its people?

  • "The children gather wood, the fathers kindle fire, and the women knead dough, to make cakes for the queen of heaven. And they pour out drink offerings to other gods, to provoke me to anger." (Jeremiah 7:18)

Salus was the goddess of public welfare in the Roman religion, but was later identified with the Greek Hygieia. Salus' temple on the Quirinal at Rome, dedicated in 302 B.C., was the scene of an annual sacrifice. Her name means “salvation” or “welfare.”

Leviticus 21:6 They shall be holy[25] unto their God, and not profane(חָלָל‎)‎[26] the name of their God: for the offerings(אִשָּׁה)[23] of the LORD made by fire(אִשָּׁה),[23] and the bread of their God, they do offer(מַקְרִיבִ֖ם)[27] : therefore they shall be holy(קָדוֹשׁ)‎ qadowsh.[28]

Staying holy means staying separate from the world of Nimrod's Babylon, Pharaoh's Bondage of Egypt or any of the other city-states like Sumer or Sodom.

Leviticus 21:7 They shall not take a wife(אִשָּׁה)[24] that is a whore,(זָנָה)‎[29] or profane(חָלָל‎)‎[30]; neither shall they take a woman(אִשָּׁה)[24] put away from her husband: for he is holy unto his God. see degenerate


The Baptism of fire and the Baptism by water were very different than what many people think today. The goal was the kingdom of God and His righteousness but it is important that the process leads to the mysterious Urim and Thummim in the heart and mind of the called out.

Baptism of fire

What is the baptism of fire?

Did the Apostles receive the Baptism of fire at Pentecost?

Can we receive the Baptism of fire?

Have we received a baptism of strange fire like the Baptism of Herod and the Pharisees?

Matthew 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

Luke 3:16 John answered, saying unto them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:

Acts 2:3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

Matthew 3:16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting[31] upon him:

Mark 1:10 And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him:

Luke 3:22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.

John 1:32 And John bare record, saying, I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon him.

The story of Ananias and Sapphira in Acts 5 is a comparison to the story of Barnabas who was a Levite who desired to repent and conform to Moses's teachings in accordance with the doctrine of Jesus concerning the personal estate of ordained ministers Jesus's Holy Church.

Joses was honest but a certain man named Ananias, with his wife Sapphira plotted to lie about that conformity to the requirement of Moses and Jesus for their appointed ministers of the kingdom of God.

When Ananias and Sapphira "conceived"[32] in their hearts a plot to lie they allowed Satan to fill their heart through the darkness of that lie. They did not understand they made themselves subject to both the power of the Holy Spirit and consequences of mixing it with the forces of darkness which produces strange fire.
