Ark (box) and Moses' brother
My friends used to tell me that if we were stuck in one spot and couldn't go on while we were trying to memorize a certain section of the Bible, then God is trying to say something to us. Well, I was not memorizing Leviticus. I was just reading it but couldn't go on and kept reading chapter 16 over and over. Then I remember to pray before dealing with God's precious words. It is God's words. My flesh alone cannot understand God's way. I am thankful God reminded me...again.
It is amazing how quickly I dry out if I don't go back to my first love towards God. "A little later" becomes too familiar and pretty soon I feel like I am okay without my time with the LORD and my in-depth word study. This study session alone with God is my fun time and God tickles my heart. I worry that I may be crazy spending time in my closet (I turned one closed into my room where I cannot close the door when I am in) but my friend's words encouraged me. She seems to think that God is actually guiding me into this place of studying the word of God. It was freeing.
So...
I started with Leviticus chapter 16 and started writing down some meanings of the original words, using the Strong's numbers and dictionary.
Ohh... wow... I didn't know the Hebrew word for the ark was "ארון (arown) ". It sounds like Moses' brother's name "Aaron"!
אהרון (Aharown) - Aaron's name
ארון (arown) - ark, box, chest...Ark of Covenant
The difference between Aaron and ark is the letter "H" just like Abram's and Sarai's names.
Abram + H = Abraham
Sarai + H = Sarah
Aaron is in the line of Levis. His name is an ark plus "H". I wrote about the letter H which I learned from Hebrew For Christians. Letter H in Hebrew indicates the presence of God.
An ark + God's presence = Aaron, the Levi, the priest
Isn't it a perfect name for him!
