Song
of Moses
By Dan Maines
The verses found in Luke 21, which parallel
those of Matthew 24, are the exact fulfillment of those verses known
as the Song of Moses [Deuteronomy 32]. We find Moses' song and the
Song of the Lamb sung in the book of Revelation. The Song of the Lamb
is the song of the redeemed of Jesus. The Song of Moses is a song
about the judgment that God said He would bring against those who
rejected Him as their Messiah, and against those who killed the
servants that He sent. God said this judgment would be the
destruction of Jerusalem and her worship system. That took place
during the final Jewish generation that lived under Law, and those
Jews were the ones who also fulfilled these horrible rejections of
truth. Much of the language of Deuteronomy 32 is exactly the same
language that the book of Revelation uses to describe the fall of
Babylon [Jerusalem]. In Deuteronomy 32:41-43 God clearly says He will
send vengeance [these are the "Days of Vengeance"] to those
that hate Him and that He will kill with the sword and take captives.
He also will avenge the blood of His servants by taking vengeance on
their enemies and having mercy on His true people. When you compare
that with Revelation 18:20, 24; 19:2, you find it is the same
wording.
Deuteronomy 32:41-43; Revelation 18:20;
Revelation 18:24; Revelation 19:2; 1 Thessalonians 2:14-16
God
plainly said in Deuteronomy 31:29 that this song of Moses was going
to be about the evil that would befall Israel in the latter days, and
Deuteronomy 32:5, 20 revealed that it would happen to a particular
generation. Jesus warned in Matthew 23:33 & 36 that this would
happen to the generation of Jews that He was talking to at that time.
As you compare these passages, their prophetic interpretation becomes
so easy to see that I can't help but wonder how anyone could continue
believing the man-made unbiblical teachings of futurists over these
clear teachings of Jesus and His Bible.
