Ramban on Leviticus 8:36/רמב"ן על ויקרא ח׳:ל״ו
אוַיַּעַשׂ אַהֲרֹן וּבָנָיו אֵת כָּל הַדְּבָרִים אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה ה' בְּיַד מֹשֶׁה יֹאמַר בְּכָל מָקוֹם "כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה ה' בְּיַד מֹשֶׁה" אֲבָל בְּכָאן מִפְּנֵי שֶׁהוֹסִיפוּ עַל הַמִּצְוָה לֹא אָמַר כֵּן, כִּי לֹא עָשׂוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר צִוָּה ה' אֶת מֹשֶׁה, אֲבָל עָשׂוּ כָּל הַדְּבָרִים אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה ה', וְעוֹד נוֹסַף עֲלֵיהֶם מַה שֶׁאָמַר בְּאֵשׁ זָרָה "אֲשֶׁר לֹא צִוָּה אֹתָם" (ויקרא י':א'):
1AND AARON AND HIS SONS DID ALL THE THINGS WHICH THE ETERNAL COMMANDED BY THE HAND OF MOSES. Everywhere in this section it says ‘as’ the Eternal commanded Moses,231 but here, since Aaron’s sons added to the command [by bringing strange fire which He had not commanded them],232 He does not say it in this way, since they did not do as the Eternal commanded Moses. Rather, the verse states that they did all the things ‘which’ the Eternal commanded, and they further added to them “the strange fire” of which He said that He had not commanded them.232Shemini
