1 | Why the dispute? | Jude 1:9 | Searcher56 | 9065 | ||
Nolan ... We don't know why, and I think the "experts" do their best. It was angel vs. angel battle, with at least one an archangel. Satan may of been a former one. Anyway, Michael knew that he needed God to intervene. So when God got invovled, He buried Moses, in an unknown location. Steve |

2 | Why the dispute? | Jude 1:9 | Makarios | 9087 | ||
Steve, We do know that God 'intervened' in this situation (Jude 1:9) through the archangel Michael, and God prevailed over Satan in this situation, since only He knows where Moses was buried. As I have stated in a former post, we do not know the magnitude or full scope of this situation, since Satan's motives are not given and there is very little detail here, except for the fact that Michael didn't dare to even slander Satan, being the chief prince of evil. The "experts" do their best and I have found their reasoning much more sound than mine own in myriad occasions while studying the Bible, Steve! And I will continue to consult them and to offer their 'sound' interpretations to the Forum- some "experts" of which are Presidents of Seminaries and spent many years and many hours of each week studying the Bible.. The credentials of these 'experts' speak for themselves and sure beat any 'credentials' that I, myself, could possibly offer to anyone.. So their interpretations not only command our acknowledgement, but our limited understandings would gain a great boost if we actually agreed with these 'experts' from time to time! I'm not saying that they are always right, but the commentary and guidance of these experts has been formulated and created by people who have levels of specialization that far exceed or outway anything that you or I have achieved. Therefore, we would be 'wise' to consult them and at least listen to them before dismissing them for a 'wild' scheme or speculation, since the 'weight' of the argument of the 'experts' is usually far greater then the 'weight' of speculation.
