Vayelech - One suffers for many
“God said to Moses, 'The time is coming for you to die. Summon Joshua and let him stand...”
The first letters of the words “Joshua and let him stand” (את יהושע והתיצבו באחל) spell out the name of Job (איוב). Also in the phrase “And people will see God and believe in Him” (את יהוה ויאמינו ביהוה), the first letters again spell out Job (איוב). What is this a hint to?
One can compare it to a shepherd who saw a wolf, took a large goat and gave it to the wolf, but in this way saved all of his flock. So God took Job and gave him over to the accuser, in this way saving the Jews from annihilation in the future. So too Moses - everything that happened to him, including not being able to enter the Land of Israel - was for the sake of saving Israel in the future.
