Aaron

Moses’ brother and spokesman, and Israel’s first high priest.

Aaron spoke for Moses before Pharaoh and helped lead Israel out of Egypt. He was set apart as the first high priest, mediating between God and the people.

He faltered by making the golden calf, yet God established his line as Israel’s priesthood, foreshadowing the perfect priesthood of Christ.
