Midrasch zu Dewarim 32:44
וַיָּבֹ֣א מֹשֶׁ֗ה וַיְדַבֵּ֛ר אֶת־כָּל־דִּבְרֵ֥י הַשִּׁירָֽה־הַזֹּ֖את בְּאָזְנֵ֣י הָעָ֑ם ה֖וּא וְהוֹשֵׁ֥עַ בִּן־נֽוּן׃
Und Mose kam und sprach alle Worte dieses Liedes in den Ohren des Volkes, er und Hosea, der Sohn Nuns.
Sifrei Devarim
(Devarim 32:44) "And Moses came": It is written here "And Moses came," and elsewhere, (Ibid. 31:1) "And Moses went." It cannot be said "And Moses came," for it is already said "And Moses went"; and it cannot be said "And Moses went," for it is already said "And Moses came." It must be understood, then, as: His time came to an end and his authority was given to another (Joshua).
