Hello,

Is there some connection between *the ark* (Ha A Ro N) and
*Aaron* (A Ha Ro N). They are anagrams.

I have seen no clear derivation of Aaron.

The derivation of ark I have read ARAH - *to gather *, then
an ark is place to gather things together. What rule makes
a noun with an -ON ending from a weak root? Or is this not
a real derivation?

Any thoughts?
