Psalms106:16

16. They envied Moses also in the camp, and Aaron the Saint of the Lord .

So called here not so much from his inherent Holiness, whereof Moses had a greater share, but because he was consecrated or set apart by God for that sacred office of the Priest-hood, in which respect all the Priests are said to be holy, Levit. 21. 6, 7, 8. Hereby he intimates, that their Envy and Rebellion was not only against Aaron, but against God himself.

Marginal references: Num. 16. 1, 1[illegible: 1+ letters]
