(For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.) Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later, but Christ is faithful over God's house as a son. For Jesus has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses-as much more glory as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself. "Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession, who was faithful to him who appointed him, just as Moses also was faithful in all God's house. The author of Hebrews tells us that Moses was a prefigure of Christ: Since that time no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face. 18 When they came home to their father Reuel, he said, “How is it that you have come home so soon today?” They said, “An Egyptian delivered us out of the hand of the shepherds and even drew water for us and watered the flock.” He said to his daughters, “Then where is he? Why have you left the man? Call him, that he may eat bread.” And Moses was content to dwell with the man, and he gave Moses his daughter Zipporah. She gave birth to a son, and he called his name Gershom, for he said, “I have been a sojourner in a foreign land.”Īll we know is that somewhere in Moab, in the valley of Peor, lie the bones of one of the greatest heroes of the faith. "Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters, and they came and drew water and filled the troughs to water their father's flock. The shepherds came and drove them away, but Moses stood up and saved them, and watered their flock.
He then began working with her father, Jethro. On the lam means, 'on the run.' More than just a play on words, when Moses ran from the murder charge (after killing an Egyptian man), he fled to the desert of Midian where he met Zipporah, the daughter of a shepherd.
