DICTIONARY OF THE APOSTOLIC CHURCH
AARON. — By name Aaron is mentioned in the NT only by St. Luke (Lk P, Ac 7^) and by the writer of the Epistle to the Hebrews (5* 7" 9^), and in his personal history very little interest is taken. OfBcially, he was represented to be the first of a long line of high priests, specifically appointed such (Ex 28"-) in confirmation of the status already allowed him in Arabic usage (Ex 4") ; and, though his successors were prob- ably not all in the direct line of descent, they found it convenient to claim relationship with him (Ezr 2^'^-), and gradually the conceptions in- volved in high-priesthood were identified with the name of Aaron. That continued to be the case in the apostolic period ; and it became a familiar thought that the high priest was a type of Christ, who was viewed as the antitype of all true sacer- dotal persons and ministries.
In this typical relation between Aaron as the embodiment of priestly ideas and Christ as their final expression, an attempt was made to trace differences as well as correspondences. Christ was thought of, not as identical with His prototype, but as invested with higher qualities, of which only the germ and promise are to be found in Aaron.
