Subject: Why did Satan want Moses bones? |
Bible Note: Scribe Moses' body might have been taken to heaven???? Satan would oppose the legality of this???? What, do you think there is a supreme court watching the conflict between God and Satan??/ Show me one place in the Bible where it says God has to do things according to legality. Or that God wanted to take Moses' body home. Your talking with authority about things that God has not revealed to us and frankly you know nothing about. We do not know why Satan wanted Moses body or why God didn't want Satan to have it. Best guess I have is because Satan knew Israel would worship Moses body and would have been easily lead in idolatry through it. It could also have been because Moses was special to God and God didn't want Satan to have anything to do with Moses' body. This I will say if God wanted Moses body and not see corruption God could have done it with same impunity God enjoyed when He took Enoch and Elijah. God does not have to do things legally, what God does establishes the standard. EdB |
