<p> Aaron’s rod is mentioned only in Hebrews 9:4, which locates the rod in the ark. An earlier tradition ( Numbers 17:10; cf. 1 Kings 8:9) preserves it ‘before’ the ark, on the spot on which it had budded (see <i> Hasting's [[Dictionary]] of the [[Bible]] (5 vols) </i> i. 3 <sup> b </sup> ). In either case the object was to secure a standing witness to the validity of the claims of the [[Aaronic]] priesthood (so Clement, <i> 1 Cor. </i> § 43). The rod has sometimes been identified as a branch of the almond tree; and both [[Jewish]] and [[Christian]] fancy has been busy with it. For early legends associating it symbolically with the cross, or literally with the transverse beam of the cross, see W. W. Seymour, <i> The [[Cross]] in Tradition, History, Art </i> , 1898, p. 83. </p> <p> R. W. Moss. </p>
