2 - Bible Commentary | Karuna Sadan

for today the Lord will appear to you. (Leviticus 9:4)

Notice that this was probably (not sure) after seven days of seeking the LORD night and day (Tent of Meeting)

“This is the thing which the Lord commanded you to do, and the glory of the Lord will appear to you.” (Leviticus 9:6)

What if a person stays night and day (seven days) with the LORD. I believe the Glory of God will be seen.

Then Aaron lifted his hand toward the people, blessed them, and came down from offering the sin offering, the burnt offering, and peace offerings. And Moses and Aaron went into the tabernacle of meeting, and came out and blessed the people. Then the glory of the Lord appeared to all the people, and fire came out from before the Lord and consumed the burnt offering and the fat on the altar. When all the people saw it, they shouted and fell on their faces. (Leviticus 9:22-24)

Then the glory of the LORD appeared to all the people, and fire came out from before the LORD: God proved His presence by sending the fire. The priests were there, the offering was there, the Tabernacle was there, and the nation was there, but it was all incomplete until the fire from God.

The Bible gives us seven examples of where God showed acceptance of a sacrifice with fire from heaven:

· Abel (Genesis 4:4)

· Aaron (Leviticus 9:24)

· Gideon (Judges 6:21)

· Manoah (Judges 13:19-23)

· David (1 Chronicles 21:28)

· Solomon (2 Chronicles 7:1)

· Elijah (1 Kings 18:38).
