Nadab

The firstborn son of Aaron the Priest. Nadab served as an anointed priest under his father until he offered "strange fire" before God with his younger brother Abihu (Leviticus 10:1; Numbers 3:4). When they offered this fire God sent forth a fire that utterly consumed them both. Before his death Nadab went with the seventy elders of Israel when they went with Moses and saw the God of Israel (Exodus 24:9-11). When Nadab was killed by God he had no children. 
In Hebrew his name is נדב (pronounced: nah-dahv). His name basically means "generous."
