The citation is:

Jhn 5:46 "If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote about me.

Jhn 5:47 But since you do not believe what he wrote, how are you going to believe what I say?”

Do you believe what Moses wrote (the first five books of the Bible)?

Jesus Christ appears all throughout the the Law (the first five books of the Bible, which, via the Holy Spirit, (2 Peter 1:20-21) were authored by Moses) and also throughout the entire Old Testament.

In the Law, He appears as the Creator, the Angel of the Lord, The Word of the Lord, a Burning Bush, a Pillar, a Cloud, and etc.

Jesus attested to these things when He said that Moses wrote about Him...Do you believe what Mose wrote?

If Moses was historically inaccurate in regard to the Creator's work, and so forth, how do we know that the other authors of Scripture were not inaccurate in regard to salvation (only through faith in Christ) and right living?

Or are you claiming that Jesus is just being vague, or misrepresentating, or intentionally rewriting, or just making an all interpretive parable?

Hbr 11:3 By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

Jhn 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Jhn 1:2 He was with God in the beginning.

Jhn 1:3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.

Is John 1 also vague?

misrepresentative?

an intentional rewrite?

a parable that can be interpreted many ways?
