Aaron (Bible)

See also: Aaron

Aaron , according to the Bible, was the brother of Moïse, the tribe of Lévi and first large priest ( Cohen gadol , entitled to the sacrifices) of the Hebrew .

Wire of Yokébed and Amram, both resulting from the tribe of Lévi, it was born in Egypt in 1574 before J. - C., according to Ussérius, in 1728 before J. - C., according to art to check the dates . It took part in all that his/her brother did to deliver the Hebrew yoke of the Pharaon S, and was indicated of God, was said the Bible to exert the Sacerdoce, him and all its posterity.

During the rise of the Mount the Sinai by Brace, to receive the Tables of the Law, the Hebrew lately released from the yoke of the Pharaon pressed Aaron to build a to them Idole of gold, by melting the bracelets and collars which they had succeeded in taking along with them. It built a Golden calf which they adored with the imitation of the Taureau Apis which was adored in Egypt.

When Moïse went down from the Sinai mount, and that he saw the Hebrews adoring an idol (thing literally prohibited by the third Command), he was took of an anger so large which he crashed to pieces the Tables of the Law on a rock. For this fault, Moïse was condemned to turn over to the top of the mount the Sinai regraver the Tables, and especially to pass its life to seek the Promised land without never being able to see it: he will die after the forty years that the people of Israel passed in the desert, with the slope of a dune which hid this honey and milk Ground.

However Moïse forgave in Aaron its fault, and it was even high by his brother with the row of Grand-prêtre, load which it was the first to be exerted.

Eloquent speaker, it usually carried the word in the place of Moïse. He died at the 123 years age on the mount Hor (33:39 Numbers) and could not enter the promised land because it had doubted the power of God. He was cried by all, men and women, whereas the Torah mentions only the only men to have cried Moïse. It is undoubtedly a way of putting forward the popularity which Aaron enjoyed. Reason? Hillel says to us to be like Aaron, to seek peace and to continue it (Mishna Pirke Avot).

It had as wire Nadab, Abihu, Eléazar and Ithamar of his wife Élischéba (Elisabeth).

Aaron in the Coran

For the Coran, that which built golden calf is called Have-Sâmiriy. Brace blamed Aaron only because it did not prevent its people from adoring this idol, but it did not take part in this worship. Indeed for the Moslems, a prophet is safe from any act polytheist. Aaron is quoted in many sourates and the fourth sourate says that it had a revelation.

" We gave you a revelation (Mahomet) as we gave to Noah and to the prophets after him. We gave it to Abraham, Ismaël, Isaac, Jacob, the twelve tribes, Jesus, Job, Jonas, David, Solomon and Aaron"

Brace is very seldom quoted in Coran without being followed by Aaron. The 24e sourate says that God had given them the light and the distinction.
