 Perceptions on the Parsha - Parshas Korach, 5766 - Torah.org
For, when Aharon saw that he was left out, he could only assume that it was because of his involvement in the golden calf episode, even though he acted completely for the sake of Heaven.
Thus, we see that Aharon was never one to be jealous of another, but rather, he was someone who was "rodeif shalom," a pursuer of peace, something which is not possible when someone is subject to jealousy.
Ironically, while Aharon remained independent he sought to be part of the Klal, while Yisro who was being invited to be part of the Klal, chose independence.

 Rabbi's Corner: Road Trip to the City of Refuge
In his work Sefer Ha-Hinuch, Aharon Halevi, a medieval commentator explains that cities of refuge served as prisons for those who commit manslaughter.

Halevi and Plaut both make strong arguments but their opinion is preserved as that of the minority.

 The story of Max Zuckerman
It seems logical to assume that Max would not have named his first son after a brother who was alive, especially since he said other brothers had died before he emigrated.
Therefore, since his brother (Alice's father) was named Avraham, and so was Max's first son, this was probably the name of their grandfather, Aharon's father.
Now it is definite that Max's name was Mordechai ben Aharon Halevi.

 I. General introduction to Kashrus
[9] Rabbi Aharon Halevi (c.1215-1293), also known as RA”AH, was born in Gerona, Spain and died in Provence, France.
As an interesting aside, Rabbi Forst cites Taz 99:13 and Shach §20 as stating, however, that if the additional non-kosher food was of a different type than the original non-kosher food, the dissimilar tastes do not reinforce each other.
(Taz is Rabbi David ben Shmuel Halevi, 1586-1667, who lived in Poland.) This means not only that the original “bitul” is still effective, but also that each of these non-kosher foods can be added to the volume of the kosher food when calculating the possibility of the nullification of the other non-kosher food.
