Did Aaron (Moses' brother) violated God' Law in Bible versus Quran?

By Dr. Ibrahim Khalil
Was Aaron (Moses' brother) Cursed in the Bible?
Yes, and…
He was Cursed because he had violated God' Law!
And had to be destroyed quickly; and Moses had to kill Aaron together with all the people which followed him!
-------------------------------------------

The following verses show how Aaron (Moses' brother) had violated God' Law!
The verses say: Do not make any gods, do not make cast idols etc.
But Aaron was idolater; he made the Golden Calf, built an altar for it and announced to worship it; and hence he violated God' Law!

Exodus 20:3 (New International Version)
You shall have no other gods before me.

Exodus 20:23 (New International Version)
Do not make any gods to be alongside me; do not make for yourselves gods of silver or gods of gold.

Exodus 34:17 (New International Version)
"Do not make cast idols.

Leviticus 19:4 (New International Version)
Do not turn to idols or make gods of cast metal for yourselves. I am the LORD your God.

Deuteronomy 5:7 (New International Version)
You shall have no other gods before me.

Deuteronomy 6:14 (New International Version)
Do not follow other gods, the gods of the peoples around you;

Deuteronomy 28:14 (New International Version)
Do not turn aside from any of the commands I give you today, to the right or to the left, following other gods and serving them.
-------------------------------------------

The following verses show how Aaron (Moses' brother) is cursed because he did a thing detestable to the LORD!

Deuteronomy 11:28 (New International Version)
The curse if you disobey the commands of the LORD your God and turn from the way that I command you today by following other gods, which you have not known

Deuteronomy 27:15 (New International Version)
Cursed is the man who carves an image or casts an idol—a thing detestable to the LORD, the work of the craftsman's hands—and sets it up in secret." Then all the people shall say, "Amen!"
-------------------------------------------

The following verses show how Aaron (Moses' brother) had to be destroyed quickly

Exodus 22:20 (New International Version)
Whoever sacrifices to any god other than the LORD must be destroyed.

Deuteronomy 7:4 (New International Version)
For they will turn your sons away from following me to serve other gods, and the LORD's anger will burn against you and will quickly destroy you.

Deuteronomy 8:19 (New International Version)
If you ever forget the LORD your God and follow other gods and worship and bow down to them, I testify against you today that you will surely be destroyed.
-------------------------------------------

The following verses show that Moses had to kill Aaron together with all the people which followed him!
The Lord in the following verses Commanded Moses:
If you hear that a man has arisen and has led the people astray, saying, "Let us go and worship other gods", you must certainly kill him and all the people which followed him!
However, Moses never did that.
Does this mean that Moses also had violated God' Law; and he had thrown away the Lord's Commandment!

Deuteronomy 13:12-18 (New International Version)
12 If you hear it said about one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you to live in 13 that wicked men have arisen among you and have led the people of their town astray, saying, "Let us go and worship other gods" (gods you have not known), 14 then you must inquire, probe and investigate it thoroughly. And if it is true and it has been proved that this detestable thing has been done among you, 15 you must certainly put to the sword all who live in that town. Destroy it completely, both its people and its livestock. 16 Gather all the plunder of the town into the middle of the public square and completely burn the town and all its plunder as a whole burnt offering to the LORD your God. It is to remain a ruin forever, never to be rebuilt. 17 None of those condemned things shall be found in your hands, so that the LORD will turn from his fierce anger; he will show you mercy, have compassion on you, and increase your numbers, as he promised on oath to your forefathers, 18 because you obey the LORD your God, keeping all his commands that I am giving you today and doing what is right in his eyes.
