The death of Moses in (Deuteronomy 34) is eight verses in the Torah. Targum Jonathan turns it into one of the most elaborate death scenes in all of ancient Jewish literature. From Mount Nebo, God shows Moses not just the land but the future—"the mighty acts which would be done by Jeptha of Gilead, the victories of Shimeon bar Manoah" (Samson), the kings of Israel and Judah "who would have dominion in the land until the latter sanctuary should be destroyed." Moses sees every judge, every king, every war, all the way to the Temple's destruction.
Then the vision extends further: "the battle of Gog, when in the time of that great tribulation Michael will rise up to deliver by his arm." Moses witnesses the end of history itself from a mountaintop in Moab.
A voice falls from heaven and summons all who have ever lived: "Come, all ye who have entered into the world, and behold the grief of Mosheh." Moses receives four crowns—"the crown of the Law, because he brought it from the heavens above; the crown of the Priesthood in the seven days of the peace offerings; the crown of the kingdom they gave him from heaven; the crown of a good name he possesseth by good works and by his humility." He earned every form of honor that exists.
The burial is cosmic. God "revealed Himself in His Word, and with Him the companies of ministering angels." Four named angels—Michael, Gabriel, Metatron, and Uriel—plus Jophiel and Jephephya, "the wise sages," laid Moses upon "the golden bed, fastened with chrysolites, gems, and beryls, adorned with hangings of purple silk, and satin, and white linens." God carried him four miles and buried him personally opposite Beth Peor, so that whenever Israel looked toward the site of their sin, they would also see the grave of their greatest prophet. The manna continued falling for thirty-seven days after his death—"for the sake of his righteousness." And the final testament: Moses carried "the two tables of sapphire stone, whose weight was forty savin" in his bare hands, before all Israel.
