Exegesis
The comparative particle ka-asher {כַּאֲשֶׁר | ka-ʾă-šer} sets up the parallel with Aaron, whose own Nifal perfect ne’esaf {נֶאֱסַף | nə-ʾă-sap-ṯ} functions as a euphemism for death. English preserves the passive voice and comparative structure to maintain the Hebrew’s thematic focus on covenantal succession.
In context — Numbers 27:13
And you will see it, and you too will be gathered to your people , just as Aaron your brother was gathered.
