Deuteronomy 34 forms a fitting close to the Torah. Moses climbed from the plains of Moab to Mount Nebo, the top of Pisgah opposite Jericho. Yahweh showed him the entire land: Gilead to Dan, all Naphtali, Ephraim and Manasseh, Judah to the western sea, the Negev, and the plain of Jericho to Zoar. This is the land which I swore to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob. Moses saw the promise but, because of his failure at Meribah, could not cross over.
So Moses the servant of Yahweh died there in the land of Moab, according to Yahweh's word. God Himself buried him in a valley in Moab, and no one knows his tomb. He was 120 years old, yet his eye was not dim, nor his strength gone. Israel wept thirty days. Moses' story does not end in a grave: he appears with Elijah beside the transfigured Jesus, speaking of His departure (Luke 9:30-31).
Leadership passed to Joshua, full of the spirit of wisdom because Moses had laid hands on him. The epilogue declares that no prophet arose in Israel like Moses, whom Yahweh knew face to face. That statement leaves the reader waiting for the prophet like Moses promised in 18:15. Hebrews 3:3-6 explains that Moses was faithful as a servant in God's house, but Christ is faithful as a Son over it.
