Perhaps you are not considering all the evidence that I am. What appears to you to be illogical is not, but why would it matter to you when you believe that God and the grace of God is illogical?

Moses knew Jesus, face to face; that is, he knew the Logos. He did not just look forward to him. In Exodus 24 we can read how Jesus and Moses and more than 70 others dined together.

The best evidence we have for the authorship of Moses is the testimony of Jesus Christ. Don't let the scholars (the scribes of our day) prevent you from recognizing this simple truth. Higher criticism likes to speculate on various authors, but Jesus settles the question for those of us with faith in him. By the way, you talked in a previous post about faith being emotional. I consider all faith based in emotion to be a false faith known as presumption. Faith is based upon knowledge, not emotion. See Romans 10. Faith must have some components of logic and understanding that touch the spirit. The emotional decision making thing has nothing to do with faith unless you are talking about when one is touching knowledge that comes from the spirit rather than through the mind.
