Aaron, Moses' brother, was the first high priest of Judaism in Exodus. His son, Eleazer was his replacement when he died. As Christians, Jesus is now our high priest who stands between us and God as our mediator. We still sin as Christians, but we are forgiven if we are sincere when we repent. To repent in Greek means to "turn around", to go a different direction.
