" In truth it was not because Moses prayed that his people were victorious, but because while the name of Jesus [in Greek 'Joshua' is 'Jesus'] was that the battle front, Moses formed the sign of the cross...Besides, the fact that the prophet Moses remained until evening in the form of the cross, when his hands were held up by Aaron and Hur, happened in the likeness of this sign. For the Lord who also remained upon the cross until evening when he was buried. Then he rose from the dead on the third day. "
