Gud sa til Aron: «Gå ut i ørkenen, så du kan møte Moses.» Da gikk han og møtte ham ved Guds fjell, og Aron kysset Moses. Så fortalte Moses Aron alt det Herren hadde sagt til ham om at Han ville sende ham til Egypt, og om alle tegnene Han hadde befalt ham å gjøre. Så gikk Moses og Aron tilbake til Israels etterkommere og samlet alle de eldste blant dem. Aron talte alle ordene Gud hadde sagt til Moses. Så gjorde han tegnene for øynene på folket, og folket trodde. Da de hadde hørt at Gud hadde sett hvordan Israels folk ble ydmyket og at Han ville hjelpe dem, bøyde de seg og tilba.
What Does This Mean?
God tells Aaron to go to the wilderness to meet Moses. Aaron finds Moses on the mountain and greets him with a kiss. This verse shows the reunion between Moses and Aaron after they are both called by God for a mission.
Explained for Children
Imagine you and your best friend haven't seen each other in a long time. One day, your parents tell you to meet your friend at the park. When you find each other, you give your friend a big hug. That's what happened between Moses and Aaron, but they kissed instead of hugging.
Historical Background
The book of Exodus was written by Moses around 1446 BC. This verse is part of the narrative detailing Moses' return to Egypt to lead the Israelites out of slavery. The cultural setting involves the Hebrews under Egyptian oppression and the divine call to liberation.
Living It Out Today
When someone you trust gives you a task, it's important to support those involved, just like Aaron supported Moses. Imagine you're part of a team project and your friend is leading it; showing your support can strengthen the team's resolve.
