Abstract: 

One would expect that Philo's life of Moses ("De Vita Mosis") would be similar in method and style to his biographies of Abraham and Josephus, but such is not the case. What distinguishes this biography from the other essays of Philo is that he is here presenting a direct interpretation of the biblical text and avoiding allegory.
