The Death of Aaron

Numbers 20

22 They journeyed from Kadesh, and the Israelites, even the whole congregation, came to Mount Hor. 23 And the Lord said to Moses and Aaron at Mount Hor, on the border of the land of Edom, 24 Aaron shall be gathered to his people. For he shall not enter the land which I have given to the Israelites, because you both rebelled against My instructions at the waters of Meribah. 25 Take Aaron and Eleazar his son and bring them up to Mount Hor. 26 Strip Aaron of his vestments and put them on Eleazar his son, and Aaron shall be gathered to his people, and shall die there. 27 And Moses did as the Lord commanded; and they went up Mount Hor in the sight of all the congregation. 28 And Moses stripped Aaron of his [priestly] garments and put them on Eleazar his son. And Aaron died there on the mountain top; and Moses and Eleazar came down from the mountain. 29 When all the congregation saw that Aaron was dead, they wept and mourned for him thirty days, all the house of Israel.
