Moses was considered to be one of the greatest men of O.T.
"We are disciples of Moses" the Pharisees announced (Jn 9:28)
Moses prophesied that God would raise up a prophet just like him, and anyone who does not listen to this prophet will be cut off from God's people.
In the N.T., Stephen stands up and declares that Jesus is the one Moses was talking about.
But how is Moses like Jesus?
Jesus did not part the Red Sea, bring down commandments from Mt. Sinai, or confront Pharaoh.
So why did Stephen say Jesus is the prophet just like Moses?
His answer is surprising.
"The is the same Moses whom they had rejected..." (Acts 7:35)
"But our fathers refused to obey him. Instead, they rejected him..."(Acts 7:39)
Jesus and Moses both sent for salvation. Both rejected by their people.
