Moses as Lawgiver
- ref. to "Moses" or "Book/law of Moses" seems to point to the Pentateuch (560; Mark 12.26; 1.44; 10.3-5; 12.19)

- voice from the cloud (Exod 24.16)
- "listen to him", said also of Moses (Deut 18.14-19)
- Mountain typology - Mark features the symbol of the mountain, which serves as a place of revelation for Jesus as it had for Moses (561).

- Events in Moses' life foreshadow Jesus' life
- Passover lamb whose bones are not broken (Exod 12.46; Num 9.12) and "the blood of the covenant" (Exod 24.8; Mk 14.24) foreshadow Jesus' death, though explicit ref. to Moses is lacking (562).
