Leviticus 1:7

1:7 and the sons of Aaron, the priest, ¹  must put fire on the altar and arrange wood on the fire.

Leviticus 6:13

6:13 A continual fire must be kept burning on the altar. It must not be extinguished.

Leviticus 10:2

10:2 So fire went out from the presence of the Lord ²  and consumed them so that they died before the Lord.

[1:7]  ¹ tc A few medieval Hebrew mss, Smr, LXX, Syriac, and Tg. Onq. have plural “priests” here (cf. 1:5, 8) rather than the MT singular “priest” (cf. NAB). The singular “priest” would mean (1) Aaron, the (high) priest, or (2) the officiating priest, as in Lev 1:9 (cf. 6:10 [3 HT], etc.). “The sons of Aaron” is probably a textual corruption caused by conflation with Lev 1:5, 8 (cf. the remarks in J. E. Hartley, Leviticus [WBC], 13).
