    The supplied morphology consistently identifies the form as a proper noun. In Exodus 16:34 the APB renders the clause “Aaron placed it before the testimony,” while Exodus 17:12 depicts Aaron supporting Moses’ hands. The name also occurs in family and service expressions: 1 Chronicles 24:1 names “the sons of Aaron,” and Exodus 27:21 assigns Aaron and his sons the arranging of the tent-of-meeting lamp.

In the Anselm Paraphrase: The APB normally presents the proper name as “Aaron,” whether he is acting with Moses, receiving an instruction, or occurring in the expression “sons of Aaron.” Because the paraphrase is not word-aligned, its surrounding wording does not establish a separate lexical rendering for each occurrence.
