Tim to Fly: “Satan never got the body of Moses, which means it never returned to dust. Jude 1:9”
Jude was referring to a Hebrew folk story. He referred to a story that would be familiar to many hearers. I wouldn’t count on that being literally true.
Tim to Fly: “Moses still had a body when he appeared on the mount of Transfiguration, with Elijah.”
You don’t know that. The Transfiguration was a vision.
In John Gill’s commentary on II Kings 2:11 we find:
<< and Elijah went up by a whirlwind to heaven; body and soul; such a change
passing on him, as he went through the region of the air, which divested him of
his mortality and corruption, and fitted him for the invisible world. >>
Gill tells us that Elijah lost his mortal body on the way to heaven and arrived with a new body suited for paradise.
