1 Viešpats tarė Mozei: “Aš tave padariau dievu faraonui; tavo brolis Aaronas bus tavo pranašas.

2 Tu sakysi visa, ką tau įsakau, o tavo brolis Aaronas kalbės faraonui, kad jis išleistų izraelitus iš savo šalies.

3 Bet Aš užkietinsiu faraono širdį ir padarysiu daug ženklų bei stebuklų Egipto šalyje.

4 Tačiau faraonas jūsų neklausys, kad galėčiau uždėti savo ranką ant Egipto ir dideliais teismais išvesti savo pulkus­savo tautą, Izraelio vaikus­iš Egipto žemės.

5 Tada egiptiečiai žinos, kad Aš esu Viešpats, kai ištiesiu savo ranką virš Egipto ir išvesiu izraelitus iš jų žemės”.

6 Mozė ir Aaronas padarė, kaip Viešpats jiems įsakė.

7 Mozė buvo aštuoniasdešimties metų, o Aaronas aštuoniasdešimt trejų metų amžiaus, kai jie kalbėjo faraonui.

8 Viešpats tarė Mozei ir Aaronui:

9 “Kai faraonas jums sakys: ‘Padarykite stebuklą patvirtinimui’, tai sakyk Aaronui: ‘Imk lazdą ir mesk ją prieš faraoną!’ Tada ji pavirs gyvate”.

10 Mozė ir Aaronas atėjo pas faraoną ir padarė taip, kaip Viešpats įsakė: Aaronas metė savo lazdą prieš faraoną ir jo tarnus, ir ji pavirto gyvate.

11 Faraonas pasišaukė išminčių ir burtininkų. Ir tie Egipto žyniai savo kerais padarė tą patį:

12 kiekvienas jų numetė savo lazdą, ir jos pavirto gyvatėmis. Tačiau Aarono lazda prarijo jų lazdas.

13 Faraono širdis liko užkietėjusi, ir jis jų neklausė, kaip Viešpats ir buvo kalbėjęs.

14 Viešpats tarė Mozei: “Faraono širdis tebėra užkietėjusi, jis nesutinka išleisti tautos.

15 ytoj anksti rytą nueik prie upės, kai faraonas eis prie vandens, ir lauk jo ten. Pasiimk tą lazdą, kuri buvo pavirtusi gyvate.

16 Jam atėjus, sakyk: ‘Viešpats, hebrajų Dievas, mane siuntė pas tave, sakydamas: ‘Išleisk mano tautą, kad ji man tarnautų dykumoje’. Tačiau tu ligi šiol nenorėjai klausyti.

17 Todėl taip sako Viešpats: ‘Iš to pažinsi, kad Aš esu Viešpats. Štai suduosiu mano rankoje esančia lazda į upės vandenį, ir jis pavirs krauju.

18 Upėje plaukiojančios žuvys išgaiš, ir upė pradės taip dvokti, kad egiptiečiai nebegalės gerti jos vandens’ ”.

19 Viešpats toliau kalbėjo Mozei: “Sakyk Aaronui: ‘Imk lazdą ir ištiesk savo ranką virš egiptiečių vandenų, upių, perkasų, balų, vandens tvenkinių. Vanduo pavirs krauju visoje Egipto šalyje, net mediniuose ir akmeniniuose induose!’ ”

20 Mozė ir Aaronas taip padarė, kaip Viešpats buvo įsakęs. Jis pakėlė lazdą ir sudavė į upės vandenį, faraonui ir jo tarnams matant. Visas vanduo upėje pavirto krauju.

21 Upėje plaukiojančios žuvys išgaišo. Vanduo ėmė taip dvokti, kad egiptiečiai nebegalėjo gerti vandens iš upės. Kraujas buvo visoje Egipto žemėje.

22 Tą patį padarė ir egiptiečių žyniai savo kerais. Faraono širdis liko užkietėjusi, ir jis neklausė jų, kaip Viešpats ir buvo sakęs.

23 Faraonas nusigręžė ir nuėjo į savo namą. Jis viso to neėmė į širdį.

24 Egiptiečiai kasė upės pakraščiuose šulinius, ieškodami geriamojo vandens, nes jie nebegalėjo upės vandens gerti.

25 Praėjo septynios dienos, kai Viešpats buvo ištikęs upę.

Aaron

The Third Plague of Egypt, by William de Brailes, illustrates the flies, or gnats, rising from the dust.

This page from Walters manuscript W.106 depicts a scene from Exodus, in which God rained plagues upon Egypt. After plagues of blood and frogs, Pharaoh hardened his heart again and would not let the Israelites leave Egypt. God told Moses to tell Aaron to stretch forth his rod and strike the dust of the earth that it may become gnats throughout the land of Egypt. Here, Moses, horned (a sign of his encounter with divinity), carries the rod, while Aaron, wearing the miter of a priest, stands behind him. The gnats arise en masse out of the dust from which they were made and attack Pharaoh, seated and crowned, and his retinue.

Aaron was the brother of Moses. He symbolizes two things, at different stages of the story.

During the first part of the exodus, when he was Moses' spokesperson, Moses represents the Word as it truly is, as it is understood in heaven, while Aaron represents the Word in its external sense, as it is understood by people in the world. This is why Aaron talks for Moses, and the Lord says of him "he shall be as a mouth for you, and you shall be to him as God." (Exodus 4:16)

Later, after the Tabernacle was built and he was inaugurated as high priest (see Leviticus 8,9), Aaron represents the Lord as to the Divine Good, and Moses represents the Lord as to the Divine Truth.

In Exodus 28:1, Aaron signifies the conjunction of Divine Good with Divine Truth in the Divine Human of the Lord. (Arcana Coelestia 9806, 9936)

In Exodus 32:1, Aaron represents the external of the Word, of the church, and of worship, separate from the internal. (Arcana Coelestia 10397)

In Exodus 4:14, before he was initiated into the priesthood, Aaron represents the doctrine of good and truth. (Arcana Coelestia 6998)

Exodus 7

1 Yahweh said to Moses, "Behold, I have made you as God to Pharaoh; and Aaron your brother shall be your prophet.

2 You shall speak all that I command you; and Aaron your brother shall speak to Pharaoh, that he let the children of Israel go out of his land.

3 I will harden Pharaoh's heart, and multiply my signs and my wonders in the land of Egypt.

4 But Pharaoh will not listen to you, and I will lay my hand on Egypt, and bring forth my armies, my people the children of Israel, out of the land of Egypt by great judgments.

5 The Egyptians shall know that I am Yahweh, when I stretch forth my hand on Egypt, and bring out the children of Israel from among them."

6 Moses and Aaron did so. As Yahweh commanded them, so they did.

7 Moses was eighty years old, and Aaron eighty-three years old, when they spoke to Pharaoh.

8 Yahweh spoke to Moses and to Aaron, saying,

9 "When Pharaoh speaks to you, saying, 'Perform a miracle!' then you shall tell Aaron, 'Take your rod, and cast it down before Pharaoh, that it become a serpent.'"

10 Moses and Aaron went in to Pharaoh, and they did so, as Yahweh had commanded: and Aaron cast down his rod before Pharaoh and before his servants, and it became a serpent.

11 Then Pharaoh also called for the wise men and the sorcerers. They also, the magicians of Egypt, did the same thing with their enchantments.

12 For they each cast down their rods, and they became serpents: but Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods.

13 Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he didn't listen to them; as Yahweh had spoken.

14 Yahweh said to Moses, "Pharaoh's heart is stubborn. He refuses to let the people go.

15 Go to Pharaoh in the morning. Behold, he goes out to the water; and you shall stand by the river's bank to meet him; and the rod which was turned to a serpent you shall take in your hand.

16 You shall tell him, 'Yahweh, the God of the Hebrews, has sent me to you, saying, "Let my people go, that they may serve me in the wilderness:" and behold, until now you haven't listened.

17 Thus says Yahweh, "In this you shall know that I am Yahweh. Behold, I will strike with the rod that is in my hand on the waters which are in the river, and they shall be turned to blood.

18 The fish that are in the river shall die, and the river shall become foul; and the Egyptians shall loathe to drink water from the river."'"

19 Yahweh said to Moses, "Tell Aaron, 'Take your rod, and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt, over their rivers, over their streams, and over their pools, and over all their ponds of water, that they may become blood; and there shall be blood throughout all the land of Egypt, both in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.'"

20 Moses and Aaron did so, as Yahweh commanded; and he lifted up the rod, and struck the waters that were in the river, in the sight of Pharaoh, and in the sight of his servants; and all the waters that were in the river were turned to blood.

21 The fish that were in the river died; and the river became foul, and the Egyptians couldn't drink water from the river; and the blood was throughout all the land of Egypt.

22 The magicians of Egypt did the same thing with their enchantments; and Pharaoh's heart was hardened, and he didn't listen to them; as Yahweh had spoken.

23 Pharaoh turned and went into his house, neither did he lay even this to heart.

24 All the Egyptians dug around the river for water to drink; for they couldn't drink of the water of the river.

25 Seven days were fulfilled, after Yahweh had struck the river.
