Notes on the Whole Bible
Albert Barnes (1798–1870) · 19th-century historical commentary

A striking proof of the efficacy of that very Aaronic priesthood which the rebels had presumed to reject. The incense offering which had brought down destruction when presented by unauthorised hands, now in the hand of the true priest is the medium of instant salvation to the whole people. Aaron by his acceptable ministration and his personal self-devotion foreshadows emphatically in this transaction the perfect mediation and sacrifice of Himself made by Christ. return to 'Top of Page' Footnotes: Copyright Statement These files are public domain.
