Who was Jethro, Moses father-in-law and what did he do?Jethro: (his excellence ) We know for sure: He taught Moses how to administer justice to a large group of people (Exodus 18:13-24) He rejoiced in God's goodness and offered sacrifices to Him. (Exodus 18:9-12)He was familiar with the area and was asked to stay with the Israelites for the length of their journey through Canaan (Number 10: 31, 33) Conflicts about Jethro: Is his name Reul or is Reul the name of Jethro's father? (see Numbers 10:29 and Exodus 2:18) Easton's and Smith's Bible dictionary take opposite points of view on this. Is he a follower of the God of Israel or just going along with the custom of Moses people? Whatever his real name was, whether or not he was a follower of the Israelite faith, he was a true friend and mentor to Moses, an example of excellence in in-lawing. |
