וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲלֵהֶ֗ם בֶּן־מֵאָה֩ וְעֶשְׂרִ֨ים שָׁנָ֤ה אָנֹכִי֙ הַיּ֔וֹם לֹא־אוּכַ֥ל ע֖וֹד לָצֵ֣את וְלָב֑וֹא וַֽיהוָה֙ אָמַ֣ר אֵלַ֔י לֹ֥א תַעֲבֹ֖ר אֶת־הַיַּרְדֵּ֥ן הַזֶּֽה׃
곧 그들에게 이르되 내가 오늘날 일백이십 세라 내가 더는 출입하기 능치 못하고 여호와께서도 내게 이르시기를 너는 이 요단을 건너지 못하리라 하셨느니라
Tosefta Sotah
And from where is it derived that Moses was born on the 7th of Adar? As it is said (Deut. 31:2), "And he said to them, I am 120 years old today," As there is [apparently] no need for the verse to state "today" (i.e., it could simply have said, "I am 120 years old"), what does "today" come to teach? That "today," his years became complete. Another version: What does "today" come to teach? It teaches that 120 years are precisely calculated from day to day. Another version, what does "today" come to teach? That the Holy One Blessed be He fulfills that which he gives to the righteous with goodwill and with happiness, as it is said (Ex. 23:26), "The number of your days I will complete." And from where is it derived that Moses died on the 7th of Adar? As it is said (Ex. 34:8), "And the Children of Israel wept over Moses in the Plains of Moab for thirty days, etc." And (Josh. 1:1), "And it was after the death of Moses, the servant of God, etc." And (Josh. 1:2) "Now arise and cross [the Jordan]." And (Josh. 1:10-11) "Joshua gave orders to the officers of the people, Pass through the camp [and instruct the people ... to be prepare to cross the Jordan in three days]." And it says (Josh. 4:19), "And the people arose from the Jordan on the tenth day of the first month, etc." Count backwards 33 [days] from that point (i.e., the 10th of Nissan), and it comes out that Moses died on the 7th of Adar.
