After he had by his atonement and intercession put a stop to the wrath of God broken forth upon the people:unto the door of the tabernacle of the congregation; where Moses was waiting for his return, and to know the issue of this affair:and the plague was stayed: even before Aaron left the camp, and is here repeated for the certainty of it, and to intimate that it continued to cease, and broke not out again.
