Aaron: Israel’s First High Priest and Brother of Moses. Aaron stands as a central leader in Israel’s journey from slavery to nationhood. As Moses’ older brother and spokesman, he helped confront Pharaoh, witnessed God’s mighty acts, and became Israel’s first high priest. His life displays both remarkable service and sobering failure, reminding us of God’s mercy and holiness.

Melchizedek: Priest of Righteousness and Foreshadow of Christ. Few figures in the biblical narrative are as enigmatic as Melchizedek. He appears suddenly in Genesis 14, is mentioned briefly in Psalm 110, and then reemerges with profound theological significance in the Letter to the Hebrews. Though only a handful of verses reference him directly, Melchizedek has generated immense reflection across Jewish, Christian, and even intertestamental writings.
