Roots of Faith

In this week’s class, Ross begins with a riddle.

The Riddle

~As an infant I went into Egypt to preserve my life
~As an adult I became a savior of my people
~I am a man and a prophet (the greatest, according to the Bible)
~Men bowed to me
~I was called, “my lord” and God
Who am I?

You don’t even have to leave the Torah to find the one of which I speak in this riddle.  The subject of the riddle was Moses. What!?  Moses?

Several years ago Ross wrote an article called the Deity of Moses.  In that article the subject matter of this week’s class was covered.  What is a prophet? In order to fully understand this topic, Ross goes through numerous passages and really focuses on Moses to illustrate the point.  Here are some of those verses.

Deuteronomy 34:1-12
Deuteronomy 18:9-22
Numbers 12:1-2 (from the week’s Torah lesson)
Exodus 33:6-11

For the substance of the riddle check the following passages out: Exodus 4:16; 7:1; and 11:8 for starters.  To get the full impact of this subject though, you have to hear the lesson.

Does Ross claim that Moses is God?  a better question might be - Did Moses claim to be God? 

You really do not want to miss this class.  Look for the article, The Deity of Moses.  It will be posted again on the site soon.
