Then Jesus told him, "See to it that you don't speak to anyone. Instead, go and show yourself to the priest, and then offer the sacrifice that Moses commanded as proof to the authorities."

Suddenly, Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Jesus.

Then Peter told Jesus, "Lord, it's good that we're here! If you want, I'll set up three shelters one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

They asked him, "Why, then, did Moses order us "to give a certificate of divorce and divorce her'?"

He told them, "It was because of your hardness of heart that Moses allowed you to divorce your wives. But from the beginning it was not this way.

"Teacher, Moses said, "If a man dies having no children, his brother must marry the widow and have children for his brother.'

"The scribes and the Pharisees administer the authority of Moses,

He told the man, "Be sure that you don't tell anyone. Instead, go and show yourself to the priest, and then offer for your cleansing what Moses commanded as proof to the authorities."

Because Moses said, "Honor your father and your mother,' and, "Whoever curses his father or mother must certainly be put to death.'

Then Elijah appeared to them, accompanied by Moses, and they were talking with Jesus.

Then Peter told Jesus, "Rabbi, it's good that we're here! Let's set up three shelters one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

"What did Moses command you?" he responded.

They said, "Moses allowed a man to write a certificate of divorce and to divorce her."

"Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man's brother dies and leaves a wife but no child, he should marry the widow and have children for his brother.

As for the dead being raised, haven't you read in the book of Moses, in the story about the bush, how God said, "I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'?

When the time came for their purification according to the Law of Moses, Joseph and Mary took Jesus up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord,

Then Jesus ordered him, "Don't tell anyone. Instead, go and show yourself to the priest and make an offering for your cleansing, just as Moses commanded, as proof to the authorities."

Suddenly, two men were talking with him. They were Moses and Elijah.

Just as Moses and Elijah were leaving, Peter told Jesus, "Master, it's good that we're here! Let's set up three shelters one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." (Peter didn't know what he was saying.)

"Abraham said, "They have Moses and the Prophets. They should listen to them!'

"Then Abraham told him, "If your brothers do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be persuaded, even if someone were to rise from the dead.'"

and asked him, "Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man's brother dies and leaves a wife but no child, the man should marry the widow and have children for his brother.

Even Moses demonstrated in the story about the bush that the dead are raised, when he calls the Lord, "the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.'

Then, beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them all the passages of Scripture about himself.

Then he told them, "These are the words that I spoke to you while I was still with you that everything written about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms had to be fulfilled."

because while the Law was given through Moses, grace and truth came through Jesus the Messiah.

Philip found Nathaniel and told him, "We have found the man about whom Moses in the Law and the Prophets wrote Jesus, the son of Joseph, from Nazareth."

Just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up,

Do not suppose that I will be the one to accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, on whom you have set your hope,

because if you believed Moses, you would believe me, since he wrote about me.

Jesus told them, "Truly, I tell all of you emphatically, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.

Moses gave you the Law, didn't he? Yet none of you is keeping the Law. Why are you trying to kill me?"

Moses gave you circumcision not that it is from Moses, but from the Patriarchs and so you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.

If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath so that the Law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man perfectly well on the Sabbath?

Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such women to death. What do you say?"

At this, they turned on him in fury and said, "You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses!

We know that God has spoken to Moses, but we do not know where this fellow comes from."

In fact, Moses said,

So they secretly got some men to say, "We have heard him speaking blasphemous words against Moses and God."

For we have heard him say that this Jesus from Nazareth will destroy this place and change the customs that Moses handed down to us."

"At this time Moses was born. He was beautiful in the sight of God, and for three months he was cared for in his father's house.

So Moses learned all the wisdom of the Egyptians and became a great man, both in words and in deeds.

"But the man who was harming his neighbor pushed Moses away and said, "Who made you ruler and judge over us?

Because of this, Moses fled and lived as a foreigner in the land of Midian. There he had two sons.

When Moses saw it, he was amazed at the sight, and when he approached the bush to look at it, the voice of the Lord said,

"I am the God of your ancestors the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.' Moses became terrified and didn't dare to look.

"This same Moses whom they rejected by saying, "Who made you ruler and judge?' was the man whom God sent to be both their ruler and deliverer with the help of the angel who had appeared to him in the bush.

It was this Moses who told the Israelis, "God will raise up a prophet for you from among your own brothers, just as he did me.'

This Moses is the one who was in the assembly in the wilderness with the angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai and to our ancestors. He received living truths to give to us,

They told Aaron, "Make gods for us who will lead us. This Moses who led us out of the land of Egypt we don't know what happened to him!'

"Our ancestors had the Tent of Testimony in the wilderness constructed, just as the one who spoke to Moses directed him to make it according to the pattern he had seen.

and that everyone who believes in him is justified and freed from everything that kept you from being justified by the Law of Moses.

Then some men came down from Judea and started to teach the brothers, "Unless you are circumcised according to the Law of Moses, you can't be saved."

But some believers from the party of the Pharisees stood up and said, "The gentiles must be circumcised and ordered to keep the Law of Moses."

After all, Moses has had people to proclaim him in every city for generations, and on every Sabbath his books are read aloud in the synagogues."

But they have been told about you that you teach all the Jews living among the gentiles to forsake the Law of Moses, and that you tell them not to circumcise their children or observe the customs.

I've had help from God to this day, and so I stand here to testify to both the powerful and the lowly alike, stating only what the prophets and Moses said would happen

From morning until evening, he continued to explain the kingdom of God to them, trying to convince them about Jesus from the Law of Moses and the Prophets. Some of them were convinced by what he said, but others wouldn't believe.

Nevertheless, death ruled from the time of Adam to Moses, even over those who did not sin in the same way Adam did when he disobeyed. He is a foreshadowing of the one who would come.

For he says to Moses, "I will be merciful to the person I want to be merciful to, and I will be kind to the person I want to be kind to."

For Moses writes about the righteousness that comes from the Law as follows: "The person who obeys these things will find life by them."

Again I ask, "Did Israel not understand?" Moses was the first to say, "I will make you jealous by those who are not a nation; I will make you angry by a nation that doesn't understand."

For in the Law of Moses it is written, "You must not muzzle an ox while it is treading out the grain." God is not only concerned about oxen, is he?

and they all were immersed into Moses in the cloud and in the sea.

Now if the ministry of death that was inscribed in letters of stone came with such glory that the people of Israel could not gaze on Moses' face (because the glory was fading away from it),

not like Moses, who kept covering his face with a veil to keep the people of Israel from gazing at the end of what was fading away.

Yet even to this day, when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts.

Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men oppose the truth. They are depraved in mind and their faith is a counterfeit.

He was faithful to the one who appointed him, just as Moses was in all God's household,

because he is worthy of greater glory than Moses in the same way that the builder of a house has greater honor than the house itself.

Moses was faithful in all God's household as a servant who was to testify to what would be said later,

Now who heard him and provoked him? Was it not all those who came out of Egypt led by Moses?

Furthermore, it is obvious that our Lord was a descendant of Judah, and Moses said nothing about priests coming from that tribe.

They serve in a sanctuary that is a copy, a shadow of the heavenly one. This is why Moses was warned when he was about to build the tent: "See to it that you make everything according to the pattern that was shown you on the mountain."

For after every commandment in the Law had been spoken to all the people by Moses, he took the blood of calves and goats, together with some water, scarlet wool, and branches of hyssop, and sprinkled the scroll and all the people,

Anyone who violates the Law of Moses dies without mercy "on the testimony of two or three witnesses."

By faith Moses was hidden by his parents for three months after he was born, because they saw that he was a beautiful child and were not afraid of the king's order.

By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called a son of Pharaoh's daughter,

Indeed, the sight was so terrifying that Moses said, "I am trembling with fear."

Even the archangel Michael, when he argued with the Devil and fought over the body of Moses, did not dare to bring a slanderous accusation against him. Instead, he said, "May the Lord rebuke you!"

They sang the song of God's servant Moses and the song of the lamb: "Your deeds are both spectacular and amazing, Lord God Almighty. Your ways are just and true, King of the nations.
