Worship Leaders
Priests and Levites
In the Old Testament God chose AARON (brother of Moses) to be the HIGH PRIEST. Aaron’s SONS
and GRANDSONS would also be PRIESTS. The priests were the LEADERS for WORSHIP. The job
of the priests was to present the people’s animal SACRIFICES to God.

Aaron was a descendant of Levi (one of the sons of Jacob). All of the other LEVITES (descendants of
Levi) besides Aaron and his family would be the HELPERS for the priests. They had two jobs – to
take care of the TABERNACLE or TEMPLE, and to lead the MUSIC.

Pastors and Deacons
