I've never questioned it because I don't view the position of priest quite like I suspect that you do. The position of "High Priest" is a lofty one to say the least. But certainly not to campare with the level of authority and responsibility of that which Moses is assigned as the LEADER of the nation Israel. Moses could not fulfill the responsibilities of both leader and Priest due to the demands of each. The priest was confined to the work in the tabernacle full time, which would have been impossible for Moses to fulfill. The duties of the High Priest were very ritualistic and involved following instructions as handed down by God through Moses. Don't get the two positions confused. Moses served as the first mediator of the people to God, and the most influencial one until the arrival of Christ. Hope this helps pal.Merle Yateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12355184202924704068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7904915686552888284.post-38012383484321436492012-09-04T22:14:56.665-04:002012-09-04T22:14:56.665-04:00I guess I'm trying to figure out why Aaron and...I guess I'm trying to figure out why Aaron and not Moses. Aaron was named high priest, but was it explained why?

Only the High Priest is allowed in this section and only once a year. At this time in our studies, this would be limited to Aaron, until his replacement is named. Therefore, although Moses is a Levite, he still would not be allowed to enter this section.Merle Yateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12355184202924704068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7904915686552888284.post-79284143296302707402012-09-03T09:04:01.727-04:002012-09-03T09:04:01.727-04:00Did Moses ever enter the tabernacle?
