They died.

The wages of sin is death.

They died suddenly.

They died before the Lord; that is , before the vail that covered the mercy-seat.

They died by fire , as by fire they sinned.

The fire did not burn them to ashes , as it had done the sacrifices , nor so much as singe their coats . Leviticus 10 . 5 but struck them dead in an instant. By these different effects of the same fire , we learn that it was no common fire , but kindled by the breath of the Almighty. Isaiah 30 . 33

strong drink . The Hebrew shecher , Arabic sakar , or sukr , Greek ףיךוסב , from shachar , to inebriate , signifies any kind of fermented and inebriating liquor beside wine. So St. Jerome informs us , that sicera in Hebrew denotes any inebriating liquor , whether made of corn , the juice of apples , honey , dates , or any other fruit. These different kinds of liquors are described by Pliny , who calls then vina factitia. One of the four prohibited drinks among the Mohammedans in India is called sakar , which denotes inebriating liquor in general , but especially date wine.
