Aaron (masculine singular proper name; indeclinable — e.g., “of Aaron,” “to Aaron” according to case)
| Root | Ἀαρών (Aarōn) |
| Core Meanings | Aaron (proper name), high priest, brother of Moses |
| Semantic Range | Personal name referring to Aaron the brother of Moses; by extension associated with the Aaronic priesthood or lineage. |
| Conceptual Significance | Aaron is the first high priest of Israel and progenitor of the priestly line. His name signifies the divinely appointed mediatorial priesthood within Israel’s covenant life, foundational for later biblical theology concerning sacrifice, atonement, and priestly intercession. |
| Morphological Notes | Noun, masculine singular, indeclinable (NMSI, GMSI, DMSI forms in context). Case (nominative, genitive, dative) is determined by syntactic function, not by alteration of the stem. |
| Rendering Rationale | The Greek Ἀαρών is a direct transliteration of the Hebrew personal name אַהֲרֹן and functions as an indeclinable masculine singular proper noun. The faithful rendering preserves the name itself while noting that case relationships (genitive “of Aaron,” dative “to/for Aaron,” nominative “Aaron”) are conveyed syntactically rather than by form change. |
