Aharon Makes Peace

When two people quarreled, Aharon went and sat down with one of them and said, “My son, know that your friend has said, ‘I am ashamed before him, because I have sinned against him.’” He would sit with him until he had dispelled the ill feeling from his heart. Then Aharon would go and sit with the other and say, “Know that your friend is saying, ‘Woe is me. How shall I raise my eyes and look at my friend? I am ashamed before him, because I have sinned against him.’” Aharon would sit with him until he had dispelled the ill feeling from his heart. When the two friends later met, they embraced and kissed each other.

Aharon also made peace between husband and wife, so that they came together again. When the child was born, they named it after him. In this way there were thousands in Yisroel who were called by the name of Aharon, for if not for Aharon, they would not have come into the world.
