As Moses watched the final rejection of that people for whom
he had worked, prayed, and sacrificed, for whom he had been
willing to have his own name blotted from the book of life, as he
listened to those fearful words, "See! Your house is left to you
desolate" (Matthew 23:38), his heart was torn with anguish. Bitter
tears fell from his eyes in sympathy with the sorrow of the Son of
God.
Moses Sees the Crucifixion and the Earth Made New
He followed the Savior to Gethsemane and saw the agony in
the garden, the betrayal, the mockery and scourging, the crucifixion.
Moses saw that as he had lifted up the bronze serpent in the
wilderness, so the Son of God must be lifted up, so "that whoever
believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life" (John 3:15).
Grief, indignation, and horror filled the heart of Moses as he viewed
the hypocrisy and satanic hatred of the Jewish nation directed
against their Redeemer.
He heard Christ's agonizing cry, "My God, my God, why have
You forsaken me?" (Mark 15:34). He saw Him lying in Joseph's
new tomb. The darkness of hopeless despair seemed to enshroud the
world, but he looked again and saw Him a conqueror going up to
heaven, escorted by adoring angels and leading a large number of
captives rescued from the grave.
