Leviticus 9:23-24
Notice where this comes in the chapter. They were already offering and already had a fire burning under the brazen altar.
You can mark down Leviticus 6:12-13. The instruction there is that the fire under the altar was never to be put out. It was continually rekindled from its own ashes. God did not spark that fire under the altar. Aaron and the priests started the fire, not God. When the fire came out from God, it was not to start the fire, it was to signal to all of Israel that He accepted the offering.
Leviticus 9:22-24
This Hebrew verb, sometimes rendered shout, sometimes sing, first appears in reference to the peoples’ response to God’s display of His glory, to His appearance in glory. I reiterate: Singing is what God’s people do, not the terror-stricken dwellers in the world-city of Babylon, those against God, those who are “outside the camp.”
Leviticus 9:22-24
They fell on their faces out of fear, reverence, respect, awe, and wonder from the knowledge that God was in their midst. That last verse shows that God accepted these people—Aaron and the priests—because everything was done according to His will.
