I Glance Through the Scriptures with You!

(KJV.)  EXODUS 18:18-27

The coming of Jethro.

(18)  Thou will surely wear away, both thou and this people that is with thee; for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone.

(19)  Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee;  Be thou for the people to Godward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God.

(20)  And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt show them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do.

(21)  Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness: and place such over them, to be, rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

(22)  And let them judge the people at all seasons, and it shall be, that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, but every small matter they shall judge: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee.

 (23)  If thou shall do this thing, and God command thee so; then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.

(24)  So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father-in-law and did all that he had said.

(25)  And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

(26)  And they judged the people at all seasons; the hard causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves.

(27)  And Moses let his father-in-law depart, and he went his way into his own land.

ADDENDUM

What was the significance of Moses; father-in-laws visit to him?

Do you realize that your good works glorify God?

Do you honour God, for what he does for you?
