How could the mountain that Moses died on be unknown?
Everyone around knew that Moses died, after Joshua was installed in his place in an orderly transfer of authority and responsibility. But nobody ever knew the spot where he was buried. As great and important a leader as Moses was, he has never been worshiped, and his grave never became a shrine. Moses died in private after being privately escorted (by God) to his burial ground and was buried by God alone. Therefore nobody else knew his location.
Who buried moses of the old testament please?
It says that the grave of Moses is not yet found.Reference:Deuteronomy 34:5, 6 - So Moses the servant of the Lord died there in the land of Moab, according to the word of the Lord. And He buried him in a valley in the land of Moab, opposite Beth Peor; but no one knows his grave to this day.[NKJV] The only proper noun for the personal pronoun "He" to refer to in the passage above is the Lord Himself.
Where is Moses' headstone?
A:Deuteronomy 34:5-6 says that Moses died in Moab and was buried secretly. This was so that no one knew where his grave was, although the same concerns did not seem to apply to his illustrious predecessors or to those who followed. Deuteronomy 34:10 could explain this diffidence, saying that "there arose not a prophet since in Israel." This demonstrates that the Book of Deuteronomy was written long after the establishment of Israel and therefore very long after Moses would have died. The author knew nothing about the burial of Moses many centuries earlier but knew that it would have been natural for his readers to want to visit the site of Moses' grave. If indeed Moses was a historical person, there was no headstone and we do not know where he was buried.
Why does God tell men we cannot locate the tomb of Moses?
In Deuteronomy 34, we are just told that Moses died and no-one knows where he is buried. The general location is provided as Moab which is near the Arabian desert. There is nothing about an instruction from God.
