Was Moses the greatest prophet ever? (34:10)

Yes, for two reasons:

(1) He had an intimate relationship with God. While God spoke to other prophets through dreams and visions, he spoke to Mosesface to face. ...

(2) No other prophet performed miracles that matched the greatness of those during the exodus. Jesus alone has been found worthy of greater honor than Moses (Heb.3:3).
