The book of Leviticus describes in detail the duties and responsibilities of the priesthood, and Aaron’s descendents, known as the Levites, served in the temple for generations.

In Hebrews 5:4, Aaron is mentioned as an example of a high priest who was chosen by God to offer sacrifices for the forgiveness of sins: "And no one takes this honor upon himself, but he receives it when called by God, just as Aaron was."
