Jethro had send a message to Moss, saying, “I, Jethro, your father-in-law, am coming to see you with your wife and two sons.”
So Moses went out to meet his father-in-law. He bowed low and kissed him. They asked about each other’s welfare and then went into Moses’s tent. Moses told his father-in-law everything the Lord had done to Pharaoh and Egypt on the behalf of Israel. He also told about all the hardships they had experienced along the way and how the Lord had rescued his people from all their troubles. Jethro was delighted when he heard all the good things the Lord had done for Israel as he rescued them from the hand of the Egyptians.
“Praise the Lord,” Jethro said, “for He has rescued you from the Egyptians and from Pharaoh. Yes, He has rescued Israel from the powerful hand of Egypt! I know now that theLord is greater than all other gods, because He rescued His people from the oppression of the proud Egyptians.”
Then Jethro, Moses father-in-law, brought a burnt offering and sacrifices to God. Aaron and all the elders of Israel came out and joined him in the sacrificial meal in God’s presence. (vv. 6-12, NLT)
