Exodus 6:26-27 meaning
Aaron and Moses (note the order they are mentioned - Aaron the eldest first), of the tribe of Levi (the future priestly line), are the ones that have been given a mandate by the LORD to speak to Pharaoh on His behalf.
An interesting addition to this commission is the phrase according to their hosts. Literally this reads "according to their armies." The idea seems to be that Israel would not leave Egypt as a disorganized mob of freed slaves but in an organized people under the LORD's guidance.
