SEV Biblia, Chapter 34:8
Y lloraron los hijos de Israel a Moisés en los campos de Moab treinta días; y así se cumplieron los días del lloro del luto de Moisés.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 8. And the children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of Moab thirty days , etc.] According both to Josephus and the Samaritan Chronicle f682 , they cried and wept in a very vehement manner, when he signified to them his approaching death, and took his leave of them; and when he was dead they mourned for him, in a public manner, the space of time here mentioned, the time of mourning for his brother Aaron, ( Numbers 20:29); so the days of weeping [and] mourning for Moses were ended ; on the eighth of Nisan or March, as says the Targum of Jonathan, and on the “ninth” they prepared their vessels and their cattle for a march, and on the tenth passed over Jordan, and on the “sixteenth” the manna ceased, according to the said paraphrase.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 5-8 - Moses obeyed this command of God as willingly as any other, though i seemed harder. In this he resembled our Lord Jesus Christ. But he die in honour, in peace, and in the most easy manner; the Saviour died upo the disgraceful and torturing cross. Moses died very easily; he die "at the mouth of the Lord," according to the will of God. The servant of the Lord, when they have done all their other work, must die a last, and be willing to go home, whenever their Master sends for them Ac 21:13. The place of his burial was not known. If the soul be at res with God, it is of little consequence where the body rests. There wa no decay in the strength of his body, nor in the vigour and activity of his mind; his understanding was as clear, and his memory as strong a ever. This was the reward of his services, the effect of his extraordinary meekness. There was solemn mourning for him. Yet ho great soever our losses have been, we must not give ourselves up to sorrow. If we hope to go to heaven rejoicing, why should we go to the grave mourning?
