  7. God’s Faithful Servant “After Moses had gone he was often talked about. Not now in disparagement or doubt but always with the confidence and assurance that he had been a man of God. His description, recorded so often and fitting perfectly our consideration of him, is Moses, the servant of the Lord. He would not have asked for anything other than that. Such had been his whole desire and the Holy Spirit in paying witness to him through the words of other prophets has made it clear that God, too, regarded him as His faithful servant.” Harry Tennant, Moses My Servant pg. 195.
