Origin[]
Aaron was the elder brother of Moses and a prophet of God. When God appeared to Moses he commanded him to go to the Pharaoh to free his people. At first Moses was afraid but God commanded Aaron to go with him as his speaker. When the Pharaoh first said no Aaron threw his staff to the ground where it turned into a vicious snake. Hissing at the Pharaoh who was surprised but declared it simple magic any of his court wizards could do. When Aaron picked it up again by the tail it turned back to wood. Lifting it up he called out the first three plagues, after that Moses was able to draw courage and speak for himself.
