What does the Bible say about the body of Moses?

Answered in 1 source

The body of Moses refers to the Law, which is a contention between Christ and Satan, emphasizing believers' freedom from its curse.

In Jude 9, when it refers to the body of Moses, it is addressing the Law of God given by Moses rather than his physical body. The contention mentioned signifies a deeper theological truth regarding how the law has no standing against believers. As Michael the archangel, representing Christ, contends with Satan, he does so not to physically dispute over Moses' body but to declare the finality of Christ's work in relation to the Law. This aligns with what Paul teaches in Romans 10:4, where he states that Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to everyone who believes. Thus, the contention emphasizes that Satan's accusations based on the Law are silenced through Christ's redemptive work.
