How old was Moses when he died?

Moses is considered the most significant prophet in Judaism.

He was one of the most salient prophets in Christianity, Islam, the Druze faith, the Baháʼí Faith and other religions.

According to both the Bible and the Quran, Moses was the leader of the Israelites and lawgiver to whom the authorship, or “acquisition from heaven”, of the Torah (the first five books of the Bible) is attributed.

Per the Book of Exodus, Moses was born at a time when his people, the Israelites were enslaved by the Egyptian King Pharaoh.

Moses’s Hebrew mother, Jochebed, secretly hid him when Pharaoh ordered all newborn Hebrew boys to be killed to reduce the population of the Israelites.

Through Pharaoh’s daughter (identified as Queen Bithia in the Midrash), the child was adopted as a foundling from the Nile river and grew up with the Egyptian royal family.

After killing an Egyptian slave-master who was beating a Hebrew, Moses fled across the Red Sea to Midian, where he encountered the Angel of the Lord, speaking to him from within a burning bush on Mount Horeb, which he regarded as the Mountain of God.

According to Deuteronomy 34:7, Moses was 120 years old when he died, yet his eyes were not weak nor his strength gone.
