[1] He continued his studies of theology in the College of the Propaganda, Rome, where he remained till his doctorate in 1744.
When in 1744 Micu-Klein, because of his petitions for freedom for all Romanians, was exiled in Rome, in a short time Aron remained as the reference figure in the Church.

The pastoral activities of Aron were hindered by the disturbance of the Orthodox monk Sofronie, which took the proportions of a violent riot supported by the Serbians.
