A Summary Of The Story Of Moses In The Bible.

Moses is the first significant prophet of the Jewish god Yahweh, according to the Jewish Hebrew Bible. Moses’ birth, Egyptian upbringing, leading the Israelites out of slavery, and building the first laws and framework for Israelite religion and society are all told in the Torah. Christians converted the Hebrew Bible into the Christian Old Testament.

The Israelites are enslaved in Egypt by a new pharaoh as Moses’ tale starts in the Book of Exodus. His tale concludes with his death in Deuteronomy, the Torah’s last book. Moses led the Jewish people out of Egypt’s servitude and onward to their new homeland.

Moses’ birth took place in (Exodus 2:1–10).

Moses’ birth would signify the commencement of God’s plan to save his people from 400 years of Egyptian enslavement. In Egypt, new kings were crowned, who had no appreciation for Joseph’s role in saving the country from famine.

Pharaoh began to be afraid of the Hebrews as their numbers increased in Egypt. He felt that if an enemy attacked, the Hebrews would band together and defeat Egypt.
To avoid this, Pharaoh ordered that all newborn Hebrew boys be slain by midwives so that they would not grow up to be warriors.
The midwives refused to follow his commands out of love for God. They informed Pharaoh that, unlike Egyptian women, Jewish mothers gave birth quickly before the arrival of the midwife.

Jochebed then took the infant and concealed it for three months in a basket constructed of bulrushes and reeds. She put the infant in the basket, waterproofed the bottom with bitumen and pitch, and set it on the Nile River. At the time, Pharaoh’s daughter was swimming in the river. She took pity on him and adopted him as her son, knowing he was one of the Hebrew children.

Miriam, the infant’s sibling, was nearby and suggested to Pharaoh’s daughter that she obtain a Hebrew woman to nurse the baby for her. then Pharaoh’s daughter named him Moses, which means “drawn out of the water” in Hebrew and sounds similar to “son” in Egyptian ( Moses’ name, “comes from the Hebrew name מֹשֶׁה (Mosheh) and is most likely derived from the Egyptian name Mes meaning ‘son,’ but could also possibly mean ‘deliver’ in Hebrew). Jochebed, the child’s mother, was the woman Miriam brought back, and she was nursing her own kid.

Childhood

Amram and Jochebed were Israelite slaves in Egypt when Moses was born. Moses’ mother placed him in a basket and set him out onto the Nile River after he was born, not wanting him to be murdered. The number of Israelites in Egypt had increased dramatically by the time Moses was born, and the Pharaoh was concerned that they would overpower the Egyptians. He ordered all male children to be drowned in the river to avert an insurrection since men were stronger than women. Moses’ parents were Levites, members of the Levite tribe, which ultimately became known as the priesthood.

 

God’s presence as Savior was evident in Moses’ early life when his parents hid him in a basket on the Nile. The basket is symbolic of the ark, which carried Noah and his family to safety when God destroyed wickedness from the face of the earth.

The ark of Noah and the basket of Moses point to the salvation of Jesus Christ. Noah and Moses were made secure in the ark, just as we are made safe through Jesus Christ, who went down into death for our salvation.

Moses was nurtured by his own mother, who introduced him to the God of Israel, after being saved by Pharaoh’s daughter. Moses lived a life of luxury at the Egyptian royal court, yet he never forgot his Israelite roots.

Life In Midian

Moses grew up in the Egyptian palace, although the Bible provides little information about Moses’ early years. He murdered an Egyptian slaver and concealed his body after seeing him beating one of the Israelites. Moses left Egypt for Midian, a country east of Egypt on the Red Sea’s northeastern shores. In Midian, he met his future wife Zipporah.

In the Torah, Yahweh regularly appeared as fiery pillars, and this narrative is no exception. On Mount Horeb, Moses encountered Yahweh in the shape of a flaming bush. Moses’ prophesied charge to lead the Israelites out of slavery was fulfilled in this narrative. Moses spent 40 years in exile in Midian before returning to Egypt.

“Lord, I’m not competent,” Moses responded when God summoned him. in quest of knowing He that called and is sending him, the Lord replied “I am” have sent you.

Moses is a really afraid of the Hebrew people fo he once tried to save them and the question “who made you a judge over us he could not answer till now (we need to know that God called us so that we can boldly stand and declare it any time. nobody can do Gods work without His call) Exod 3:13-15. He was well aware of his flaws as a human being. His unwavering devotion to his mission became a model for spiritual leaders to follow.

Summary

In the land of Midian God rescues the daughters of a high priest who gives him his daughter Zipporah. Moses is not interested and bluntly tells God, “Please send someone else” (Exodus 4:13). The angel of God then brings Moses a message that he should return to Egypt to free his people. Yahweh frequently appears as a fiery pillar in the Torah, and this story is no exception. This story concludes Moses’ mission to free the Israelites from slavery. Moses encountered Yahweh in the form of a burning bush on Mount Horeb.

Exodus

There were ten plagues sent to Egypt sequentially in an effort to convince the Pharaoh to release them. The plagues included events such as the Nile River turning to blood and the killing of all of the Egyptians’ livestock.
Pharaoh changes his mind after they have gone, however, and sends his army of chariots in pursuit. In one of the best-known passages from the Bible, Moses parts the Red Sea so his people can cross and then closes the waters over the Egyptian army. This event was referred to as the Exodus, literally meaning the “exit,” from Egypt.

The Pharaoh brought his army of chariots to pursue the Israelites as they walked on foot through the wilderness. Moses parts the Red Sea so his people can cross and then closes the waters over the pursuing Egyptian army, drowning them. Moses guides his people forward by following two signals provided by God: a pillar of cloud during the day and a pillar of fire at night.

Mount Sinai (Mount Sinai in Modern-Day Egypt)

Moses was given the duty of guiding the Israelites to the “Promised Land” that Yahweh had promised them: Israel. He led them to Mount Sinai, a peak in the Sinai Peninsula’s southern region. They faced several difficulties on their voyage, which Moses overcame with the help of God. At Mount Sinai, he met God and received the Ten Commandments, God’s laws for his people.
The people requested that Aaron create an idol for them to worship and pray to. Aaron creates a golden calf by melting the treasures they took from Egypt in a fire. the Israelites have begun to fear his death and have become hopeless.

He becomes outraged and smashes the tablets of the Ten Commandments when he returns down the mountain and discovers his people worshipping the idol. He gathers all those who have stayed faithful to God, including Aaron, and orders that they slaughter their neighbours, friends, and brothers who compelled Aaron to create the idol for them. Exodus 32:27-28 details the incident and alleges that Moses’ Levites murdered “approximately three thousand people.” After then, God warns Moses that he will no longer accompany the people because they are “stiff-necked people,” and that if he continues to walk with them, he would murder them out of irritation.

Between the Ten Commandments and the other instructions, everything is quite clear. God further commands that a lampstand of pure gold and a table of acacia wood be made and placed before his presence in the tabernacle. He also outlines acceptable offerings and various sins one must atone for. No longer will the people have to question his existence or wonder what he wants.

Despite the presence of God, the people continue to doubt, dread, and question, and it is determined that this generation will wander in the desert until they die, while the next generation will see the promised land. Moses then leads his people through the desert for forty years until they reach the promised land of Canaan. Moses is only permitted to view it from across the Jordan River. His second-in-command, Joshua son of Nun, takes up leadership when he dies and is buried in an unmarked burial on Mount Nebo.

The books of Numbers, Leviticus, and Deuteronomy, along with Genesis and Exodus, make up the first five books of the Bible, which are traditionally ascribed to Moses himself as an author. Moses’ trials and challenges mediating between his people and God, as well as his laws, are recorded in these books.

>Received the Ten Commandments, also known as the Decalogue, which included regulations provided by Yahweh to the Israelites.

>Established a covenant with Yahweh, which was a promise or contract.

> Punished the Israelites for constructing a golden calf while waiting for Moses to descend from the mountain.

>Established the priesthood, the organization of Israelite religious leaders, via Aaron’s lineage.

>Constructed the Tabernacle, a portable tent that held the Ark of the Covenant and Yahweh’s presence.

After leaving Mount Sinai, the Israelites continued their gruelling journey toward Israel. Yahweh told Moses to speak to a rock for water to flow from it, but instead, Moses disobeyed and struck the rock twice in frustration. Moses was told he would no longer be allowed to take the Israelites into Israel. While Moses later gets to see Israel from a mountain, he passes the leadership of the group to Joshua.

Moses’ Achievements

Moses helped free the Hebrew people from slavery in Egypt, the most powerful nation in the world at that time.

He led this huge mass of unruly refugees through the desert, kept order, and brought them to the border of their future home in Canaan.

Moses received the Ten Commandments from God and delivered them to the people.

Under divine inspiration, he authored the first five books of the Bible, or the Pentateuch: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.

Strengths

Moses obeyed God’s orders despite personal danger and overwhelming odds. God worked tremendous miracles through him.

 

Things improved dramatically once Moses followed his father-in-law’s suggestion and transferred some of his tasks to others.

Moses had great faith in God, even when no one else did. He was on such intimate terms with God that God talked with him regularly.

Weaknesses

Moses disobeyed God at Meribah, striking a rock twice with his staff when God had told him just to speak to it to produce water. Because Moses did not trust God in that instance, he was not permitted to enter the Promised Land.

His Death And Posmoteum Glory

Moses sees the Promised Land for the last time from Mount Nebo, “the top of Phasga.” His most important words concern a future Prophet, similar to himself, whom the people will accept. He is buried in “the valley of Moab against Phogor,” but no one knows where he is buried.

He is the paradigm of Hebrew holiness, so greatly outshining previous models that the Christ whom he prophesied seemed to be eclipsed by him in the imaginations of the educated twelve centuries after his death. In human terms, it was an unavoidable providence that stood beside Elijah in the Transfiguration, much inferior to the magnificent Antitype whose arrival he had foreseen.

Note:

A surrendered heart may be an appealing instrument even in ordinary life. Every believer has a personal relationship with God the Father because of the Holy Spirit’s indwelling. The Ten Commandments are a guide to leading a good life, but they cannot rescue us.

Things To Note About Moses From The Bible

1. Moses was the first abandoned child mentioned in the Bible.

Moses was hidden for three months by his pious parents to avoid the Egyptian decree that all male Hebrew newborns must be murdered. They sent him adrift in a basket on the Nile River when they could no longer hide him (Ex. 2:3).

2. “Moses’ name is taken from the Hebrew name (Mosheh) and is most likely derived from the Egyptian name Mes, which means “son,” but might also mean “deliver” in Hebrew.”

There has been some debate over the meaning of his name, with some scholars linking it to a root meaning “to bear,” which can be found in Egyptian names like Ahmose and Thutmose. The name given to him by the princess is linked to a Hebrew word that means “to bring forth” (cf. 2 Sam 22:17), but it might possibly have stemmed from an Egyptian phrase that meant “son” (Exodus 2:10).

3. Pharaoh’s daughter paid Moses’ mother to nurse him after she rescued him from the Nile River (Ex. 2:8-9)

“Yes, go,” she answered. So the girl went and got the baby’s mother. 9 Pharaoh’s daughter said to her, “Take this baby and nurse him for me, and I will pay you.” So the woman took the baby and nursed him.

4. Moses was the baby of the family.

He had an older sister, Miriam, and an older brother, Aaron.

5. Moses was a serial killer. Moses intervened when he saw an Egyptian assaulting a Hebrew slave and killing the Egyptian (Ex. 2:12). He buried his victim in the sand to conceal his crime.

6. While “on the run from a murder accusation, Moses escaped to the desert of Midian, where he met Zipporah, the daughter of a shepherd, and began working with her father, Jethro.” He had two boys with Zipporah, his wife.

7. Moses gave God five poor arguments for why he couldn’t be Israel’s deliverer at the burning bush scene.

(Examples 3-4) God, predictably, rebuked everyone.

8. Moses most likely stumbled. In Exodus 4:10, the New Living Translation of the Bible relates Moses’ response to God’s call: “I’m not very good with words, Lord. Even though you have talked to me, I have never been and will never be. My words become jumbled as I become tongue-tied.”

9. When Moses argued that he couldn’t speak for Israel, God decided to let his older brother, Aaron, do so.

However, after the first assignment, Moses took centre stage, and Aaron took a backseat to his younger brother.

10. Moses was 80 years old when he led the children of Israel out of Egypt, so he wasn’t your usual octogenarian.

Most people his age today would be rocking in their recliners, but Moses was not one of them. His first 40 years in Pharaoh’s court had prepared him to lead, and his second 40 years had taught him about the desert, which he and the Israelites would traverse. At the age of 80, Moses was completely equipped for God’s purpose; the best was yet to come.

11. Moses was the first person to handle a serpent. He utilized snakes three times throughout his term as a leader to display God’s might. Moses was so terrified the first time God changed his rod into a serpent that he turned tail and fled(Ex. 4:3).

12. Moses was afflicted with leprosy. God commanded Moses to put his hand in his cloak after proving his might by turning Moses’ rod into a serpent. His hand was covered in leprosy when he removed it. Thankfully, God nearly instantly cured the incurable sickness(Ex. 4:6-7).

13. Moses sent his wife and sons back to his father-in-house, the law’s fearful for their safety and mindful of his inadequacy to properly care for them while arranging the largest exodus in human history. When the Israelites camped at the base of Mt. Sinai following the exodus, they were reunited.

(Ex. 18:7).

14. Moses was a composer. He was a musical collaborator, to be more precise. The waves stopped when the children of Israel crossed the Red Sea on dry land, drowning Egypt’s powerful army. God created a song to commemorate their escape and sent Moses to write it down and teach it to the crowd. It was dubbed “The Song of Moses” (Deu. 32:1-43).

15. God, not Moses, wrote the Ten Commandments. “Come up to me on the mountain and remain here, and I will give you the tablets of stone with the law and instructions I have inscribed for their instruction,” the LORD said to Moses. (Ex. 24:12). Moses did, however, write down the rule that God had given him. The Pentateuch, or the first five books of the Old Testament, includes these texts. (Ex. 24:4).

Moses saw a vision of God. Moses saw God on Mt. Sinai with his brother Aaron, nephews Nadab and Abihu, and the seventy elders of Israel. “Under his feet was something like sapphire pavement, as pure as the sky itself.” God, on the other hand, did not lift his hand against these Israelite leaders; they saw God and ate and drank.” (Ex. 24:9-11).

17. Moses was extraordinarily humble. God recognized him in the canon of Scripture as “a very humble man, more humble than anyone else on the face of the earth” (Num. 12:3).

18. Moses was 120 years old when he died. His eventful life may be split into three segments, each lasting 40 years. The first as an Egyptian pharaoh’s son, the second as a shepherd, and the third as Israel’s revered leader. He had perfect eyesight and incredible strength at the time of his death (Deu. 34:7).

19. Moses knew in advance the day of his death (Deut. 31:14). God instructed him to commission Joshua as his replacement, and then climb Mt. Nebo. There he showed him the Promised Land, and there he died.

20. Moses was buried on the mountain by God, and his burial was never discovered. All we know is that the bones of one of the faith’s greatest heroes are buried somewhere in Moab, near the valley of Peor. (Deuteronomy 34:5–6)

Note:

>Moses was educated at the Egyptian court and learned to read and write, which he used later in his life to writing the first five books of the Bible.

>Because Moses’ brother Aaron was younger than him, Pharaoh’s decree to murder all male newborns had to be rescinded. As Moses’ mouthpiece and subsequently as a high priest, Aaron performed an important role.

>We learn nothing about Moses’ upbringing after his birth. We don’t know if Pharaoh was aware that his adoptive grandson was a Hebrew or if Pharaoh’s daughter married.

>God would subsequently lift the Hebrew people out of the water—the Red Sea—to save them from the pursuing Egyptians, just as he had Moses.

A Summary Of The Life OF Moses.

There is debate concerning Moses’ birth year, as there is with other historical figures; different researchers have differing viewpoints on this. But, according to popular belief, Moses was born in Egypt between 1391 and 1392 BCE.
Amram and Jochebed (also known as Yocheved), his parents, were both Levites. Moses was the youngest of their three children, with a seven years elder sister named Miriam and a three years elder brother named Aaron.

According to legend, the Israelites arrived in Egypt 400 years before Moses was born. They first supported themselves by working freely but were subsequently enslaved by the Pharaoh, whose name is unknown. Regardless, their numbers continued to rise. The group had become rather large by the time Moses was born. Fearing that they would join his enemies, the Pharaoh ordered that all newborn Hebrew male children be flung into the Nile River and drowned.

Jochebed concealed her son for the first three months because she couldn’t bear to murder him. She then put him in a bulrush basket, sealed it with slime and pitch, and sailed it down the Nile while Miriam kept an eye on him from afar.
The basket quickly became entangled in bulrushes growing beside the riverbed. The Pharaoh’s daughter, Bithiah or Thermuthis, eventually came to bathe along the riverside, according to several sources. She was married to Mered of the tribe of Judah but had no children of her own.

She began wandering around after hearing a baby scream and discovered an infant sleeping in a weed basket. She took him home, moved by compassion. Bithiah selected Jochebed as his wet nurse, according to some accounts, on the advice of Miriam, who was lurking close. The princess declared him her own kid and named him Moses or Moshe, which means ‘drawn out of the water in Hebrew. Some academics think the name comes from the Egyptian word ‘mose,’ which means ‘is born.’ Moses was raised as the son of a princess in the opulence of Egypt’s royal court, getting the finest of everything.

His foster mother made sure he got the greatest education possible. It is clear from his subsequent achievements that he had an extensive understanding of religious, civic, and military concerns. He learned about his Hebrew ancestors as he grew older. Curious, he began to visit Hebrew quarters, developing sympathy for his people’s predicament as they toiled in the most inhumane conditions.

When Moses was roughly 25 years old, he observed an Egyptian slave master brutally abusing his Hebrew slave, nearly killing him. He killed the Egyptian because he couldn’t control himself and made sure no one saw him do it. He was shocked the next day. When he saw two Hebrews fighting, he drew them back and asked the culprit why they were fighting. The criminal then inquired as to who had appointed Moses as a prince and judge over them, and if he planned to murder him as he did the Egyptian.

Moses realized that if these people knew about his secret, the Pharaoh might as well. He escaped to the desert of Midian, presumably on the Arabian Peninsula, avoiding a series of forts on Egypt’s eastern border before travelling southeast across a barren and dismal landscape. While resting by a well in Midian, he discovered seven young girls watering their sheep, who happened to be the daughters of a Midianite priest named Jethro. Other shepherds arrived and attempted to chase them away before they were done. Moses intervened on their side and vanquished the females.

Moses remained behind to look at Jethro’s sheep. Moses spotted a bush blazing continually without being burned while tending to his sheep on Mount Horeb one day. He heard a voice instruct him to take off his sandals since he was standing on hallowed ground as he moved forward. Moses was instructed by the speaker, who identified himself as the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to liberate His chosen people from the Egyptians’ grasp and lead them to the Promised Land. Moses was also ordered to address Him as Yahweh and proclaim that He was the one, God.

Moses was first apprehensive, but after Yahweh assured him of His assistance, he consented to take on the assignment. God also declared that because Moses stammers, his elder brother, Aaron, will be his spokesperson. During the reign of Ramses II, Moses returned to Egypt, possibly around the age of forty. He now approached Pharaoh with brother Aaron, informing him that the God of Israel had asked that he release his people.

The Pharaoh, who regarded himself as divine and need slaves to complete the construction projects he had begun, refused to listen to the appeal of a ‘lesser deity.’ He further upped the strain on the Israelites, further persecuting them. Many Israelites, unable to bear it, began to protest.

Moses appealed to God in anguish, asking why He had sent him there. According to legend, the Lord then sent seven plagues upon the Egyptians. Some of the plagues, on the other hand, were historically accurate and had a scientific basis.

The first epidemic, which converted the Nile’s water into blood, had a geological foundation. Heavy rains in Ethiopia pushed powdered, carmine-red dirt into the river. It brought red-coloured water to the Mediterranean, reaching the delta in August because there was no dam along the route. Ethiopian floodwaters also contained a variety of microorganisms that caused infections and killed people. The plagues were now employed by Moses to put more pressure on Pharaoh.

The Pharaoh, who was first stubborn, gradually gave in, eventually relenting after his eldest son died of the plague, allowing the Israelites to depart Egypt. Alternatively, some traditions tell that when the kingdom became silent, Moses took advantage of the opportunity and fled with his kinsmen, totalling roughly 15,000.

The Pharaoh changed his mind after the Hebrews fled and sent his soldiers to fetch them back. They were about to capture the travellers at a ‘Sea of Reeds,’ which many scholars believe was a large lake, while others believe it was the Red Sea; however, Yahweh came to their rescue once more.

A strong east wind started to blow, splitting the water of the lake/sea, creating a path for them to travel while Moses continued to reassure his terrified kinsmen, who unleashed their grievances on him. When the Egyptian soldiers tried to pursue them, the water rose up and drowned them all. Most scholars agree that Moses now travelled the southern path to Jabal Ms in order to approach Mount Horeb (Sinai). It was not an easy road. He had to command a swarm of scheming and arguing former slaves who constantly opposed his authority and whined about the hardships they were forced to endure.

Moses was aware that Yahweh was with them the entire time, and he turned to Him for guidance. When the food ran out, Yahweh provided them with manna, the supernatural nourishment that fed the hungry. The Israelites captured a large portion of the area east of Jordan under his command. God came to Moses once again on Mount Sinai, delivering him the “Ten Commandments” engraved on stone tablets. However, because he took so long to descend, the Israelites waiting at the foot of the mountain assumed he was dead.

They made a golden calf and proceeded to worship it. When Moses saw this, he became enraged and struck the idol with the stone tablets, destroying it. The commandments were subsequently written on another tablet and given to his people.
The Israelites were forbidden not only from worshipping other gods but also from creating idols and using the Lord’s name in vain, according to the commandments. It also prohibited them from killing, stealing, adultery, false testimony, and coveting their neighbours’ possessions. Instead, kids were to respect their parents and observe the Sabbath.

Moses knew that these regulations had to be interpreted in order to be lived. Therefore, he started imposing a variety of social and religious regulations, all of which were founded on these Ten Commandments, thereby constituting the rudiment of Hebrew civilization. These were eventually included in the ‘Torah,’ or ‘Old Testament.’

Yahweh also gave Moses instructions at Sinai to build the ‘Tabernacle,’ a portable shrine in which He would journey with the Hebrews to Canaan, the Promised Land. The generation that fled Egypt, on the other hand, would not make it to their objective. Moses led the Israelites to the Desert of Paran, on the Canaanite border, shortly after receiving the ‘Torah.’ He then dispatched twelve spies into Canaan, who reported back that the region was fruitful but inhabited by giants. The Israelites were terrified and refused to enter the territory.

Moses, enraged by their defiance, informed them that they would never enter the Promised Land and would instead wander for forty years in the desert until the generation that had rebelled against God’s will had perished. The following generation would be the ones to invade Canaan. Moses led a fresh generation of Israelites through the Dead Sea to Edom and Moab at the end of the forty-year period. The Midianites were then defeated. He then gathered the people on the Jordan River’s bank as they approached Canaan.

He then told them about their journey through the desert and gave them the rules for living in the Promised Land. Finally, he handed up command to Joshua, who would now lead the tribe into Canaan. Moses married Zipporah, one of Jethro’s seven daughters, while tending to Jethro’s herds at Midian. Gershom and Eliezer were the couple’s two sons. There is nothing further known about them. After departing Mount Sinai, he chose a Cushite lady as his second wife, according to legend. Miriam and Aaron, however, were both against the marriage.

Moses travelled up to Mount Nebo, also known as Mount Pisgah, near the Canaan border after passing the authority to Joshua. He could see the Promised Land stretching out before him from the summit. After that, he was never seen again.

Moses is considered a prophet not just by Judaism, but also by Christianity, Islam, and the Bahá Faith. In Judaism, however, he is regarded as the most significant Prophet. He is also credited with writing the Torah, which comprises the first five chapters of the Hebrew Bible, often known as the Old Testament. When the water became scarce, God instructed Moses to speak to the rocks, but Moses instead struck them with his rod. God barred him from entering Canaan because of his disobedience.

Conclusion

Moses is mentioned more than any other Old Testament prophet or character in the Christian New Testament. In Christian texts, Moses is referred to as the Lawgiver. He plays an important role in Jesus’ famous parable of Lazarus and the Rich Man. The wealthy guy awakens in the underworld to find Lazarus and Father Abraham. He asks Father Abraham for assistance, but he is reminded that he enjoyed a comfortable existence on earth while Lazarus struggled.

The rich man then asks Father Abraham to send someone to warn his family, as he has five brothers still living, and tell them how they should better live to avoid his fate. Abraham responds, “They have Moses and the prophets, let them listen to them”. Moses is depicted as the paragon of God’s truth in this parable. People may prevent eternal separation from God if they followed Moses’ example and teachings. The parable stresses how Moses’ teachings contain all a person needs to know about living a good and respectable life and having a wonderful afterlife with God.

Moses is also featured in Jesus’ transfiguration in Matthew 17:1-3, Mark 9:2-4, and Luke 9:28-30 along with Elijah when God announces that Jesus is his son with whom he is well pleased. In these passages and others in the New, Testament Moses is held up as an exemplar and representative of God’s will.

It is uncertain whether a religious leader named Moses ever led his people and started a monotheistic view of the divine. Individual views will have a greater impact than any historical proof or lack thereof. Moses is revered by all three main monotheistic religions in the world today, and he continues to serve as a paradigm of humanity’s connection with the divine for people of all faiths.
