Then he said to Moses, "Come up to the Lord (Yahweh), you and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, and worship from a distance.
Moses and Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of Israel's elders went up [the mountainside],
Take Aaron, your [elder] brother, to be close to you, and his sons with him, from among the sons of Israel, to serve me as priests: Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu [who offered strange fire, see Lev. 10], Elazar [who took over the priesthood after Aaron, see Num. 20:24–29] and Ithamar, the sons of Aaron.
And Aaron's [two eldest] sons, Nadab [meaning "generous"] and Abihu [meaning "my father (is) he"], took their censers and put fire in them and laid incense on top and offered strange (unlawful – Hebr. zarah) fire (Hebrew esh) before the Lord (Yahweh), which he had commanded them not to do.
And these are the names of Aaron's sons: Nadab, the firstborn, and Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar.

And to Aaron were born
Nadab and Abihu,
Elazar and Ithamar. [Ex. 6:23]

The sons of Aaron had the following divisions:
The sons of Aaron were Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar.
