I've always thought there was a certain wry humor in Moses' writing that he was the 'meekest,' or perhaps most humble, man on the planet.
It turns out that there's more to it. Including the fact that the statement appears in the middle of a story about prophecy, and how his brother and sister took him to task...for something. (And, personally, I don't think it was his taking of a second wife, nor particularly the fact that she was a Cushite. But that's only a part of the story.)
What I think is most interesting, and arguably relevant at this turning point in history, is what it says about prophets and prophecy in general. And the connections run throughout Scripture. It turns out that "two witnesses" appear long before the 'second witness' in Revelation.
