The praise of Moses Since that time This phrase refers to the period following Moses' death. It highlights the unique role Moses played in Israel's history. Moses' leadership and prophetic ministry were unparalleled, setting a standard for future prophets. The phrase underscores the transition from Moses' direct leadership to the era of the judges and later prophets. no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses whom the LORD knew face to face— Persons / Places / Events 1. MosesA central figure in the Old Testament, Moses was chosen by God to lead the Israelites out of Egypt and to receive the Law on Mount Sinai. He is described as a prophet whom the LORD knew "face to face," indicating a unique and intimate relationship with God. 2. Israel The nation chosen by God to be His people, through whom He would reveal His laws and promises. Moses played a crucial role in shaping the identity and faith of Israel. 3. The LORD (Yahweh) The covenant name of God, emphasizing His eternal presence and faithfulness. The relationship between Yahweh and Moses is highlighted as unparalleled in this verse. 4. Prophet In the context of the Old Testament, a prophet is someone chosen by God to speak His words to the people. Moses is set apart as a prophet of exceptional status. 5. Face to Face This phrase signifies a direct and personal communication with God, which was rare and significant in the biblical account. Teaching Points The Uniqueness of Moses' Prophetic RoleMoses' role as a prophet was unparalleled in the Old Testament, highlighting the importance of his leadership and the revelation he received from God. Intimacy with God The phrase "face to face" signifies a deep, personal relationship with God. Believers are encouraged to seek a closer relationship with God through prayer and obedience. God's Faithfulness to His Servants God's unique relationship with Moses demonstrates His faithfulness to those He calls. We can trust that God will equip and sustain us in our callings. The Continuity of God's Revelation While Moses was unique, God's revelation continued through other prophets and ultimately through Jesus Christ. This continuity assures us of God's ongoing work in history. The Call to Faithfulness Just as Moses was faithful in his service, believers are called to be faithful in their walk with God, trusting in His guidance and provision.(10) And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face.--Probably these words are later than the time of Joshua, when longer experience gave men the power to see how far inferior the prophets were to their great predecessor in this respect. The difference is most clearly set forth in Numbers 12:7-8. (See Notes on that passage.)Verse 10. - (Cf. Exodus 33:11.) Whom the Lord knew. "For the Lord was revealed to him face to face" (Onkelos). The knowledge here referred to was not merely that cognizance which God as the Omniscient has of all men, but that special knowledge by which men, being known of God, are made to know him (cf. 1 Corinthians 8:3). The statement in this verse could only have been inserted some time after the death of Moses, and after the people had had manifestations of God's presence with them, both by communications from him through the prophets and by the successes which he had given them over their enemies. But it is not necessary to suppose that a long period during which a lengthened succession of prophets had arisen had elapsed. "Moses was the founder and mediator of the old covenant. As long as this covenant was to last, no prophet could arise in Israel like unto Moses. There is but One who is worthy of greater honor than Moses, namely, the Apostle and High Priest of our profession, who is placed as a Son over all the house of God, in which Moses was found faithful as a servant (comp. Hebrews 3:2-6 with Numbers 12:7), Jesus Christ, the Founder and Mediator of the new and everlasting covenant" (Keil).
