there came a fire.These victims were consumed by a fire of no human kindling. Josephus says that "a fire proceeded from the victims themselves, of its own accord, which had the appearance of a flash of lightning, and consumed all that was upon the altar." 6:13; Ge 4:3,4; 15:17; Ex 3:2; Jud 6:21; 13:19,20,23; 1Ki 18:382Ki 19:15; 1Ch 21:26; 2Ch 6:2; 7:1-3; Ps 20:3,4; 80:1; *marg:they shouted.Ge 17:3; Nu 14:5; 16:22; 1Ki 18:39; 2Ch 7:3; Ezr 3:11; Mt 26:39Re 4:9; 5:8; 7:11Numbers 14:5

I fell down.The transgressions of the people rendered this second forty days' fasting necessary to Moses. Their pardon was indeed in some sense obtained before he ascended the mount; yet probably much of the time which he spent there was employed in supplication: and when he descended the second time, with the tables of the law in his hands, the pardon was, as it were, ratified and sealed. 9; Ex 32:10-14; 34:28; 2Sa 12:16; Ps 106:23Deuteronomy 9:25

In illustration of this custom, see 1 Sa 4:12, when the messenger brought tidings to Eli of the discomfiture of the armies of Israel by the Philistines; again, in the case of Tamar, 2 Sa 13:19, and in Ne 9:1, when a whole nation, "assembled with fasting, and with sackcloth, and earth upon them." See also the case of Mordecai, Es 4:1, and Job 2:12, where his friends abased themselves to comfort him; refer also to Eze 27:30. Jon 3:6. Mic 1:10. In each of these instances it is worthy of remark, that putting dust on the head generally follows rending of the clothes, and was the usual mode of evincing poignant sorrow.Judges 13:20
