the Greater Lord
Jethro was delighted to hear about all the good
things the Lord had done for Israel in rescuing
them from the hand of the Egyptians.
He said, “Praise be to the Lord, who rescued you
from the hand of the Egyptians and of Pharaoh, and
who rescued the people from the hand of the Egyptians.
Now I know that the Lord is greater than all other gods,
for he did this to those who had treated Israel arrogantly.
Then Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law, brought a burnt
offering and other sacrifices to God, and
Aaron came with all the elders of Israel to eat a meal
with Moses’ father-in-law in the presence of God.
Exodus 18:9-12 NIV
