Deuteronomy 34:11

_AND THERE AROSE NOT A PROPHET SINCE IN ISRAEL LIKE UNTO MOSES, WHOM THE LORD KNEW FACE TO FACE,_ There arose not a prophet since. In whatever light we view this extraordinary man, the eulogy pronounced in these inspired words will appear just. No Hebrew prophet or ruler equalled him in character, official dignity, as well as knowledge of God's will, and opportunities of announcing it.

9-12 Moses brought Israel to the borders of Canaan, and then died and left them. This signifies that the law made nothing perfect, Hebrews 7:19 It brings men into a wilderness of conviction, but not into the Canaan of rest and settled peace. That honour was reserved for Joshua, our Lord Jesus, of whom Joshua was a type, (and the name is the same,) to do that for us which the law could not do, Romans 8:3. Through him we enter into the spiritual rest of conscience, and eternal rest in heaven. Moses was greater than any other prophet of the Old Testament. But our Lord Jesus went beyond him, far more than the other prophets came short of him. And see a strong resemblance between the redeemer of the children of Israel and the Redeemer of mankind. Moses was sent by God, to deliver the Israelites form a cruel bondage; he led t...

EXPOSITION DEATH, BURIAL, AND ENCOMIUM OF MOSES. After blessing the people, Moses, in obedience to the Divine command, ascended Mount Nebo, the highest peak of the Pisgah range, and thence surveyed the whole land of Canaan, from north to south, and from east to west, as well as the district on the east of the Jordan, not included in Canaan proper.

Not Dan Laish, near the central source of the Jordan, which was not in Gilead, but another Dan in Northern Perea, the site of which has not yet been discovered (cf....

IN ALL THE SIGNS AND THE WONDERS WHICH THE LORD SENT HIM TO DO,.... The same Targums also paraphrase here, "which the Word of the Lord sent him to do;'' for he it was that appeared to him in the bush, and sent him to Egypt to work miracles, which he did by him: IN THE LAND OF EGYPT, TO PHARAOH, AND TO ALL HIS SERVANTS, AND TO ALL HIS LAND; to whom they were visible, and who were all affected by them more or less: this respects chiefly the ten plagues inflicted on the Egyptians: the Jews observe that the superior excellency of Moses to the rest of the prophets lay chiefly in his superior degree of prophecy rather than in miracles, and not so much in the nature or the quality of the miracles; the stopping of the sun by Joshua, and the raising of the dead to life by Elijah and Elisha, being greater than his; but either in the duration of them, as the manna which continued near forty year...

4. THE DEATH OF MOSES CHAPTER 34 _ 1. The death and burial of Moses (Deuteronomy 34:1)_ 2. The mourning of the people (Deuteronomy 34:8) 3. The conclusion of the book (Deuteronomy 34:9) This chapter was not written by Moses, but is an addition by another chosen instrument. The home-going of this great man of God is beyond description. What a scene it must have been when he ascended Nebo to the top of Pisgah! And the Lord met him there and showed him the land and said: “This is the land, which I sware unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, saying, I will give it unto thy seed. I have caused thee to see it with thine eyes, but thou shalt not go over thither

These _vv_. are irrelevant to the more spiritual estimate of Moses" prophetic rank in Deuteronomy 34:10, and therefore may be due to a later hand. On the deuteronomic phrases _signs and wonders, mighty hand, great terror_, see Deuteronomy 4:34, and on _all Israel_(not P's _children of Israel_), see Deuteronomy 4:44; Deuteronomy 31:23. Thus the Book closes in characteristically deuteronomic style....

DEUTERONOMY: GOD’S LAW OF LOVE LOVE AND OBEY THE *LORD YOUR GOD DEUTERONOMY _PHILIP SMITH_ CHAPTER 34 V1 Then Moses climbed from the plains of Moab to *Mount Nebo. He went to the top of *Mount Pisgah, which is east of Jericho. There, the *LORD showed to him the whole country. Moses saw Gilead’s land as far north as Dan. V2 He saw also all of Naphtali’s land, Ephraim’s land and Manasseh’s land. He saw Judah’s land across to the Mediterranean Sea. V3 He saw the southern area. And he saw the whole area from the valley of Jericho to Zoar. Jericho was the city with trees called palm trees. V4 Then the *LORD said this to Moses. ‘This is the country that I promised to Abraham, to Isaac and to Jacob. I said that I would give it to their *descen
