Deuteronomio 34:8 Meaning and Commentary

Deuteronomy 34:8

And the children of Israel wept for Moses in the plains of
Moab thirty days
According both to Josephus F14 and the Samaritan Chronicle F15, they cried and wept in a very vehement manner, when he signified to them his approaching death, and took his leave of them; and when he was dead they mourned for him, in a public manner, the space of time here mentioned, the time of mourning for his brother Aaron, ( Numbers 20:29 ) ;

so the days of weeping [and] mourning for Moses were ended;
on the eighth of Nisan or March, as says the Targum of Jonathan, and on the "ninth" they prepared their vessels and their cattle for a march, and on the tenth passed over Jordan, and on the "sixteenth" the manna ceased, according to the said paraphrase.

9 E Giosuè, figliuolo di Nun, fu ripieno dello Spirito di sapienza; perciocchè Mosè avea posate le sue mani sopra lui; e i figliuoli d’Israele gli ubbidirono, e fecero come il Signore avea comandato a Mosè.
10 Or non è mai più sorto alcun profeta in Israele, simile a Mosè, il quale il Signore ha conosciuto a faccia a faccia,
