Not since Moses has anyone seen a mountain so greatly.
I like the character of Moses. He is the first disunionist we read of in the Jewish Scriptures.
The great spiritual geniuses, whether it was Moses, Buddha, Plato, Socrates, Jesus, or Emerson. . . . . have taught man to look within himself to find God.
Being a kind, emperor, or president is mighty small potatoes compared to being a mother. Commanding an army is little more than sweeping a street compared with training a boy or girl. The mother of Moses did more for the world than all the kinds that Egypt ever had. Oh, you wait until you reach the mountains of eternity, then read the mothers' names in God's Hall of Fame.
If I'm out of my mind, it's all right with me, thought Moses Herzog.
Moses made mistakes, Abraham made mistakes, David made mistakes, Elijah made mistakes.
Accumulate, accumulate! This is Moses and the Prophets!
Brittney, it was wrong to murder even before Moses brought down the commandments. Right and wrong doesn't come from God. It's inside us. And we know it. And even if God appears right in front of us, and tells us to our faces to murder, it's still wrong.
To me Moses is all men grown to gigantic proportions.
Do you realize what would happen if Moses were alive today? He'd go up to Mount Sinai, come back with the Ten Commandments, and spend the next eight years trying to get published.
Africa has her mouth on Moses.
[Judaism is] ever. . . mighty in wickedness. . . when it cursed Moses; when it hated God; when it vowed its sons to demons; when it killed the prophets, and finally when it betrayed to the Praetor and crucified our God Himself and Lord. . . And so glorying through all its existence in iniquity.
Just as God gave Moses exactly what he needed to accomplish great things, he will equip us in the same way. If he calls us to slay giants, he will make us into giant slayers.
[Moses] probably said to himself, 'Must stop or I shall be getting silly. ' That is why there are only ten commandments.
The faithful are ever sustained by the presence of the Supreme Concourse. In the Supreme Concourse are Jesus, and Moses, and Elijah, and Bahá’u’lláh, and other supreme Souls: there, also, are the martyrs.
The following sentiments are illustrative of the philosophy of the Talmud: "Love peace and pursue it at any cost. ". . . "Remember it is better to be persecuted than to persecute. ". . . "Be not prone to anger. ". . . "He who giveth alms in secret is greater than Moses himself. ". . . "It is better to utter a short prayer with devotion than a long one without fervor. ". . . "He who having but one piece of bread in his basket, and says, What shall I eat tomorrow? is a man of little faith. "
This music has been around since before the beard on Moses. I happed to do it very well and I happen to have a lot of groovy songs that I know people are going to dig. I know more about it than you do.
Abba Moses asked Abba Sylvanus, Can a person lay a new foundation every day? The old man replied, If you work hard, you can lay a new foundation every moment. Abba Pimen said, To throw yourself before God, not to measure your progress, to leave behind all self-will; these are the instruments for the work of the soul. The desire to rule is the mother of heresies.
They say that at that moment you didn't do this, you didn't do that, but at that time I didn't have the means. I didn't have an army to stop the killings. I'm not Moses, I can't do miracles.
Moses was a forgotten man in the wilderness, But God had Moses right where he wanted him and met him at a burning bush.
