Haydock's commentary
His. Greek, "holy, like to himself his brother of the," &c. (Haydock) (Psalm cv. 16.)
He was the interpreter of Moses, and honoured with the high priesthood. Aaron and his posterity were bound to be faithful to the law, ver. 19. (Calmet)
Their priesthood was to last till Christ appeared, a priest forever of the order of Melchisedech.
