by higher light the reproach of Christ riches than the treasures of Egypt, because he looked to the reward. (Heb. 11: 26).
Moses had studied. Was imbued with all the science of the Egyptians, but this was not the only requirement needed to prepare for his work. In the providence of God, should learn to have patience, to master their passions. In the school of self-denial and hardship he was to receive an education that will be of great benefit. These tests prepare it for dispensing a paternal care to all who needed his help. No knowledge, study or scholarship could replace that experience to someone testing you should watch for souls as one who has to be accountable. To perform the work of a humble pastor, to forget oneself and caring for the flock placed in their care, was to prepare for the most exalted work ever given to mortals, that of being the shepherd of the sheep in the meadow of the Lord .
who fear God in the world must be in communion with him. Christ is the most perfect teacher who once met the world. For Moses was more valuable to receive his wisdom and knowledge that all the teachings of the Egyptians. . Moses
Faith led him to contemplate the invisible things, eternal. He left the splendid attractions of the life of the court because there was the sin. Apparently abandoned the good that was within reach and that it led only to ruin and destruction. For him real attractions were worthless, eternal. The sacrifices made by Moses was not really sacrifices. Lost an apparent good, present, promising to get good insurance, high, immortal.
Moses endured the reproach of Christ, considering it more valuable than all the riches of Egypt. He believed what God had said and could not be deflected from its integrity by any of the taunts of the world. Walked the earth as a free man of God. . . He looked at the invisible things and not hesitate. Felt the attraction of the reward, and so can happen with us. He was a friend of God (Testimonies, Volume 4, pp. 343, 345). EGW
