Moses fasting

SpoilerOriginal Content

Was made to go to Wednesday night service tonight (a waste of an hour) and the pastor talked about fasting . He talked when Moses fasted for 40 days and 40 nights from food, drink, pretty much everything and how god revealed the commandments to him. He said it as if it was something super profound and showed how we sometimes have to separate ourselves from distractions and starve our flesh for god to get closer to us and reveal things etc etc.

I personally think it’s absolute bull and that Moses was most likely hallucinating due to having no food, water, people to talk to. He was old, hungry, and most likely senile. There’s nothing profound about starving and seeing things.
