Gill's Notes on the Bible

But Nadab and Abihu died before their father,.... While he was living, see Leviticus 10:1

and had no children, therefore Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priests' office: otherwise, as Jarchi observes, had their brethren left children, they would have come into the office before them.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 1 Chronicles 24:2. Nadab and Abihu died before their father — That is, during his lifetime.

Eleazar and Ithamar executed the priest's office. — These two served the office during the life of their father Aaron; after his death Eleazar succeeded in the high priesthood. And under Eli the high priest, the family of Ithamar re-entered into that office.
