Moses and Aaron were the ones who spoke to Pharaoh king of Egypt in order to bring the Israelites out of Egypt.
This genealogy ends in Moses and Aaron to prove they were true Israelites, bone of their bone, raised up from among their own people, just as Christ would be. God's favours do not follow the order of birth; He often prefers the younger before the elder, crossing hands according to His sovereign will, not man's expectation.

Commenting on Exodus 6:14-30
The genealogy begins with Reuben, Jacob's firstborn, then Simeon, to establish Levi's position among Jacob's sons before tracing Moses and Aaron's descent. Father's-house was the larger grouping of families under a common ancestor, and the passage shows the tribal structure into which these men were born.
