In Matthew, they did meet. It was called the Mount of Transfiguration............and they did speak.
However, the point of your question is "did they have comflicting beliefs?"
No..............not really but it's a fair question.
Moses was given the law to set up a society. The Messiah himself would come from this society and it had to be strict. There were no prisons, etc.
Jesus brought in the mercy of God...........the law still stands for society - but no personal revenge. We extend the love of God to others........they really don't contradict each other.

They met more then once, and they are probably talking at least a few times a week now. Seeing that Moses was a prophet of God and all, I'm sure they have much to discuss.
The law of Moses was meant to be law until Christ came. Once Christ came, some of those laws had been fulfilled and weren't needed anymore. The idea that Moses believed in revenge is a little off, at least to me. Moses was told by God that the law should be as it was. Who was he to argue with God? It isn't about revenge. It's about treating others as you would want to be treated. It's about fair punishment, and fair judgment. It's about giving to each person what is theirs.
I think you need to re-read the law of Moses. Maybe you would understand more if you learned more about the customs and the way things worked in that society.

The Mosaic code was not about revenge, though it seems that way today. Take "an eye for an eye" as an example. This was to limit the punishment from "if you put out my eye, I'll put out both of yours" to "all punishment must be equal." The law even established cities of refuge so if someone accidentally killed another person, they could go there to escape the revenge of the deceased's family. Jesus' teachings did not conflict with Moses, but elaborated on them.

First on their list was ^Man, how times change there on that planet!^^
Second, ^^What do you think about all the copyright infringements on our biographies? Next time I`ll get the whole thing translated in at least three completely different languages and then back again to the original. If it still sounds ok, then I`ll release it. If not, I`ll only write a very short one which tells people not to believe anything from anyone else and why.^
That`s only my opinion and nobody has ever paid me for it, so........Cheers!
Actually now that I think on it more, maybe that`s what they put in the Holy Grail secret box that has stayed secret cause it would put them all out of business. hmmmm!

In Moses' day, the animal sacrifice grow to be an atonement, a "masking" of sins. The animal sacrifice does not forgive sins with the aid of fact the animal is an unknowing/unwilling sacrifice. whilst Jesus got here, He lived His existence as a suitable guy. Sinless in each and every way. We endured to stay in our sins via mendacity, stealing, hating (homicide), lusting (adultery) and the penalty of our sins grow to be eternal loss of existence. Jesus got here in to God's courtroom docket and stepped in to be our exchange. God unleashed His wrath on His purely begotten Son as a exchange persons, even although we ought to continually be in that spot. Jesus grow to be a keen and understanding sacrifice and therefor grow to be waiting to forgive sin. ok, possibly this may well be clearer... you're in on the sign in of a keep and you need to pay on your purchase. you could the two pay for it or you could conceal the acquisition value. in case you pay for it, you hand to clerk money, in case you conceal it, you write a examine which covers the cost however the keep does not rather have your cash yet. Jesus may be the money interior the occasion. Animal sacrifice could be a examine interior the occasion.

They met on the "mountain of transfiguration" (Matt 17:3) and they spoke of the salvation of humans. Moses did NOT believe in revenge.(Ex 32:32)

Jesus never really taught forgiveness.
Jesus told us time and time again not to judge. His comment to those who were about to stone the woman, Let he who is without sin cast the first stone” elegantly asks, who among them has any right to Judge her.
The comment about tending to the beam in your own eye before you concern your self with the mote in your neighbors eye is yet another way of making the point to us that judgment is an idea best left to the confused. The most obvious of these comments about Judgment that Jesus made was his directive, Judge not lest you yourself be judged. Letting us know that if we judged others, we might expect the same treatment in the future.
Precious little remains of what Jesus actually said, and these are just a few of the comments he made concerning Judgment. Isn’t it interesting that Jesus spent so much time cautioning us about judgment? From his comments we can conclude that Jesus thought that seeing yourself, as being in a position to judge others was arrogant.
Forgiveness is an interesting concept for people who are trying to follow the teachings of Jesus, because if you are refraining from judging like Jesus asked us to do, there is never anything to forgive.

Moses did meet Jesus with Elijah. Peter and one or two of the disciples were there to witness it.
