DEATH AND BURIAL OF MOSES — KJV (King James Version) Bible Verse List



#Scriptures #BibleStudy #BibleVerses

“Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee.”
Jude 1:9, KJV

While I cannot conclusively prove it, my understanding has always been that Jude 1:9 is referring to what occurred on the summit of Pisgah, following Moses’ death. Consider these seven verses:

“And Moses went up from the plains of Moab unto the mountain of Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that is over against Jericho. And the LORD shewed him all the land of Gilead, unto Dan, And all Naphtali, and the land of Ephraim, and Manasseh, and all the land of Judah, unto the utmost sea, And the south, and the plain of the valley of Jericho, the city of palm trees, unto Zoar. And the LORD said unto him, 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. So Moses the servant of the LORD died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the LORD. And he buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, over against Bethpeor: but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day. And Moses was an hundred and twenty years old when he died: his eye was not dim, nor his natural force abated.”
Deuteronomy 34:1-7, KJV

So it is my understanding that the Lord — via the Archangel Michael — buried the body of Moses in some undisclosed location, but not before having a confrontation with the Devil.
