Let us admire the character of Moses in this point of view, in his concern for the church of GOD: he seems to have more anxiety on this occasion than respecting his own death. But let us turn from Moses to look at Moses' GOD, who, it is said of him, was moved with compassion when he beheld the multitudes, in the days of his flesh, which were as sheep having no shepherd; and commanded his disciples to pray the LORD of the harvest, that he would send forth laborers into his harvest. Matthew 9:36-38.

16 Let the LORD, the God of the spirits of all flesh, set a man over the congregation,
17 Which may go out before them, and which may go in before them, and which may lead them out, and which may bring them in; that the congregation of the LORD be not as sheep which have no shepherd.
