“As a new Moses, Jesus is rescued in infancy and travels to safety.”
(The Jewish Annotated New Testament, NRSV, annotation by Aaron M. Gale on Matthew 2.1–23, p. 5)
Unlike Jesus, Moses was never properly referred to as "my God".

“Matthew is certainly the most Jewish of the Gospels, written primarily to convince those from a Hebrew background that Jesus is the Messiah. One of the ways that Matthew accomplishes this is by comparing of Moses with Jesus.
Indeed, Matthew makes heavy use of Moses typology in his Gospel, showing that Jesus is a new and greater Moses. The parallels between Jesus and Moses begin with Matthew’s infancy narrative. …”

So why have so many never heard Jesus called “the new Moses”? Poor education.
This is something that everyone should be able to agree with.

Yes indeed no comparison at all.
Moses pointed the people to the Son
The Son pointed people to Himself.
Luke 24:25-27
25 And He said to them, "O foolish men and slow of heart to believe in all that the prophets have spoken! 26 " Was it not necessary for the Christ to suffer these things and to enter into His glory?" 27 Then beginning with Moses and with all the prophets, He explained to them the things concerning Himself in all the Scriptures.
John 5:39-40
39 "You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; it is these that testify about Me; 40 and you are unwilling to come to Me so that you may have life.
Luke 24:44-45
44Now He said to them, "These are My words which I spoke to you while I was still with you, that all things which are written about Me in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms must be fulfilled." 45 Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures,

So you hold a "Matthaean priority "? Such teachings are the doctrines of men.
Luke is more exacting and John is God's love letter to humanity.
I suppose Jesus was the "second Moses" instead of the "second Adam"? Or that Moses transfigured before the disciples? Have you ever noticed how different the transfiguration is between Matthew and Luke?

Point me to the Bible not the writings of men where Matthew who wrote the gospel says :“… Matthew’s emphasis on Jesus as the new Moses.

Its funny reading all these claims as if they are somehow biblical facts that are assumed without a single solitary verse from the Bible to substantiate the false claim.
Oh the irony when it comes to the wisdom of man and not the Wisdom that comes down from above as James so eloquently puts it in his epistle that bears his name.
hope this helps !!!

Jesus the new type of Moses indeed for a new age and new people of God.
(Joh 1:17) For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. (NEV)
Physically, Moses was given and carried the outward Law (Tablets) and instructions by the Father for a new way of living, for a new people. Whilst Jesus internally carries and brought the spiritual law of truth of grace of the Father. The next step and new Moses indeed for a new spiritually-led people under a special grace through faith in the heart and not written or signed on paper.

So you are agreeing with me that Matthew does t say Jesus is the new Moses. In face your quote proves my point as he is contrasting them with grace and truth coming from Jesus not Moses.

I did not address Matthew in my response really civic. I guess I agree with Matthias at least that Jesus is a new type of Moses for said reasons I gave, with scripture, John. I will look into Matthew to answer your query.

Only God can save. There are no exceptions to this rule, for any assumption of a Savior besides God is idolatrous—plain and simple. Since only the one God can save, and the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit save in loving interaction, the one God must be a loving interaction of Father, Son, and Spirit. This is how I have arrived at this conclusion “God Is a Trinity.”

I want to know what people believe; not only what they believe but why they believe it. You spelled out the why of your belief clearly. That helps me to reconsider and reevaluate what I believe. You’ve done me and your other readers a good service. Thank you.
