"For I die in this land, I do not cross over the Jordan…"(4, 22)

 His place in Gan Eden

 The Migaleh Amukot wrote that before the passing of Moshe Rabeinu, G-d showed him his place in Gan Eden and the verse alluded to that in the words "עלה ראש הפסגה ושא עיניך ימה, וצפנה ותימנה ומזרחה." – "Go up to the peak of the mountain and raise your eyes westward, northward, southward and eastward".

 "עלה ראש הפסגה" – go up above the letters of the word PISGA  פ-ס-ג-ה –  which are   ב-ע-ד-ן..

 We can add that in order to enter Gan Eden we need the key of the word Amen, as our Sages have said, "He who answers Amen with all his might – the gates of Gan Eden are opened up for him". Therefore in this verse answering Amen is also alluded to because the numerology of the initials of the words "הפסגה ושא עיניך ימה"  (ה-ו-ע-י) add up to the numerology of the word Amen, 91.

 Shabbat Shalom!!
