CHAPTER 1

A

AARON (År' on) Moses' brother; Israel's first high priest. His parents Amram and Jochebed were from the tribe of Levi, Israel's tribe of priests (Exod. 6:16-26). Miriam was his sister. With his wife Elisheba, Aaron had four sons: Nadab, Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. The first two perished when they offered sacrifices with fire that God had not commanded them to make (Lev. 10:1-2; 16:1-2). Two priestly lines developed from the remaining sons: Ithamar through Eli to Abiathar and Eleazar to Zadok (1 Sam. 14:3; 22:20; 1 Kings 2:26-27; 1 Chron. 6:50-53).

Aaron experienced the joy of starting Israel's formal priesthood, being consecrated to the office (Exod. 28-29; Lev. 89), wearing the first priestly garments, and initiating the sacrificial system (Lev. 1-7). He also bore the burdens of his office as his sons were killed for their disobedience (Lev. 10:1-2), and he could not mourn for them (Lev. 10:6-7). He also bore the special rules of conduct, clothing, and ritual cleanness (Lev. 21-22).

He could not live up to such high standards perfectly. Thus he had to offer sacrifices for his own sins (Lev. 16:11). Then in his cleansed, holy office, he offered sacrifices for others. In his imperfection Aaron still served as a symbol or type of the perfect priest as seen in Ps. 110:4, where the future king was described as eternal priest. Zechariah 6:11-15 also speaks of a priest — Joshua — in typical terms. Thus the imperfect Aaron established an office full of symbolic meaning for Israel.

With all his faults Aaron was a man chosen by God. We do not know what Aaron did during Moses' 40-year exile from Egypt, but he maintained the faith, kept contact with Israel's leaders, and did not forget his brother (Exod. 4:27-31). Ready of speech, he served nobly as Moses' spokesman before Pharaoh. More than once he stretched out Moses' staff to bring God's plagues on the land (Exod. 7:9,19). In the wilderness Aaron and Hur helped Moses hold up the staff, the symbol of God's power, so that Israel would prevail over Amalek (Exod. 17:12).

At Sinai Aaron and his two older sons, Nadab and Abihu, were called to go up the mountain with Moses and 70 elders (Exod. 24:9). There they worshiped and ate and drank in heavenly fellowship. As Moses and Joshua went farther up, Moses left Aaron and Hur in charge (Exod. 24:14). When Moses delayed on the mountain, the people asked Aaron for action. They cried, "Make gods for us" (Exod. 32:1 NRSV). Their sin was polytheism (worship of many gods) as well as idolatry. Aaron all too easily obliged and made a calf and apparently led in its worship.

On another occasion Aaron appeared in a bad light. In Num. 12 he and Miriam spoke against Moses' marriage to the Cushite (Ethiopian) woman. (Cush was an old name for Upper Egypt — approximately modern Sudan.) The relationship of the Cushite woman to Zipporah is not clear. Numerous explanations have been offered. Some believe Zipporah had died. Others maintain Moses' relationship with her was severed when he sent her away (Exod. 18:2). Possibly both Zipporah and the Cushite woman may have been Moses' wives at the same time. Some have even suggested that Zipporah was the Cushite woman. Even though Zipporah was a Midianite, at least one side of her family may have been from Cush. Anyway, Aaron and Miriam were jealous of their younger brother. In reality, their murmuring was against God (Num. 12).

Though Miriam was severely judged, Aaron was not, perhaps because he was not the instigator but the accomplice. He confessed his sin and pleaded for mercy for Miriam. When Korah, Dathan, and Abiram opposed Moses and Aaron, Aaron's intercession stopped the plague (Num. 16). God vindicated Aaron's leadership in the miraculous blossoming of his staff (Num. 17). When the people cried for water at Kadesh in the desert of Zin, Aaron joined in Moses' sin as they seized the power of the Lord for themselves (Num. 20:7-13). In consequence, Aaron, like Moses, was not to enter the promised land. Nearby on the border of Edom after 40 years of his priesthood, Moses took Aaron up Mount Hor and transferred his garments to his son, Eleazar. Aaron died there at the age of 123 years (Num. 20:23-28). Israel mourned for their first high priest 30 days (Num. 20:29), as they soon would mourn for Moses (Deut. 34:8). R. Laird Harris

AARONITE (År' on it) Term used only in the KJV to translate the name Aaron where it refers to the descendants of Aaron (1 Chron. 12:27; 27:17). Equivalent to the phrases "sons of Aaron," "descendants of Aaron," and "house of Aaron" used often in the OT.

AARON'S ROD Aaron used a rod to demonstrate to the Pharaoh that the God of the Hebrews was Lord. It became a snake when cast down (Exod. 7:8-13) and brought about the first three plagues (Exod. 7:19-20; 8:5-7,16-19). This rod was the same one used to strike the rocks at Horeb and Kadesh to bring forth water (Exod. 17:1-7; Num. 20:7-11).

The rebellion of Korah (Num. 16:1-50) made it necessary to determine who would be eligible to come before God in the tabernacle as priests. The head of each tribe was to inscribe his name on an almond rod representing his tribe, and each rod was placed in the tabernacle. The next morning Aaron's rod had blossomed and bore almonds. This was taken as a sign from God that the house of Aaron had the right to serve Him in the tabernacle. The rod was placed inside the tabernacle (Num. 17:1-11). According to Heb. 9:4, the rod was kept in the ark of the covenant. See Korah.

AB Name for the fifth month in the Jewish religious calendar corresponding to the eleventh month in the Hebrew civic calendar. It usually covered parts of July and August. The name does not appear in the Bible.

ABADDON (A ·bad' don) Name meaning "to perish." In the KJV Abaddon appears only in Rev. 9:11 as the Hebrew name of the angel of the bottomless pit whose Greek name was Apollyon. Abaddon occurs six times in the Hebrew Bible (Job 26:6; 28:22; 31:12; Prov. 15:11; 27:20; Ps. 88:11). The KJV and NIV translate Abaddon as "destruction," while the NASB and RSV retain the word "Abaddon." See Hell.

ABAGTHA (A bag' tha) One of seven eunuchs on the staff of Ahasuerus or Xerxes (486-465 B.C.), King of Persia (Esther 1:10). See Eunuch.

ABANA (Ab'a·na) or ABANAH (NASB) River in Damascus in Syria. In his anger Naaman wanted to wash here rather than in the dirty Jordan (2 Kings 5:12). Many Hebrew manuscripts, the Septuagint, and Targums call the river the Amana (Song 4:8). Its modern name is Barada, and it travels swiftly from snow-capped Mount Hermon through Damascus to end in a marsh.

ABARIM (Ab a·rim) Mountain range including Mount Nebo from which Moses viewed the promised land (Num. 27:12; 33:47-48; Deut. 32:49). The mountain range is in Moab, east of the Dead Sea, west of Heshbon, and slightly southeast of Jericho. Jeremiah called Jerusalem to cross to...
