Numbers 20:22-24 King James Version (KJV)
22 And the children of Israel, even the whole congregation, journeyed from Kadesh, and came unto mount Hor.
23 And the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in mount Hor, by the coast of the land of Edom, saying,
24 Aaron shall be gathered unto his people: for he shall not enter into the land which I have given unto the children of Israel, because ye rebelled against my word at the water of Meribah.
Numbers 20:22-24 International Standard Version (ISV)
The Death of Aaron
22 They traveled from Kadesh, and then the entire community of the Israelis arrived at Mount Hor. 23 Then the LORD told Moses and Aaron at Mount Hor, near the territory of Edom, 24 “Aaron is to be gathered to his people, since he is not to enter the land that I’m about to give the Israelis. After all, you both rebelled against my command at the Meribah Springs.

These are my thoughts, please share yours.
22 Kadesh had been a place they had been before. Sometimes God takes us back to where we used to be but we then are more experienced and older.
23 What is happening is God is saying that Aaron is about to die, he would not enter the promise land due his sin. Sin keeps us from God but for this reason Jesus died for us. Aaron and Moses both showed poor leadership by not listening to God at the springs. We have to deligently seek to obey God.
