Moses

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, over against Bethpeor; but no man knoweth of his sepulchre unto this day.
Deuteronomy.—Chap. xxxiv. Verses 5 and 6.

All [the Jews] know of him is that his body was not left to the birds of the air and the beasts of the field. For the Lord buried him.
Kingsley.—Parish Sermons, No. 18.
