Moses viewed the Promised Land from which mountain before his death?

• A. Horeb
• B. Zion
• C. Nebo
• D. Carmel

Answer: (C)

Moses viewed the Promised Land from Mount Nebo, a hill in Moab. In Deuteronomy 34, he goes up to the mountain of Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, and from there God lets him survey all the land of Canaan, though he would not enter it. This distinguishes Nebo from the other mountains: Horeb is Sinai, where Moses first met God and received the Law; Zion refers to Jerusalem; Carmel is another mountain range. Mount Nebo is the place where Moses looked over the land before his death.
