1. Moses was beloved by God and men. The remembrance of him is a blessing.

2. He made him like the holy ones in glory, and he magnified him by the fear of his enemies, and he appeased great portents by his words.

3. He glorified him in the sight of kings, and he gave commandments to him in the sight of his people, and he revealed his glory to him.

4. He made him holy by his faith and meekness, and he chose him from among all flesh.

5. For he heard him and his voice, and he led him into a cloud.

6. And he gave him precepts in his presence, with a law of life and discipline, so as to teach Jacob his covenant and Israel his judgments.
