1 Now Jethro, the priest of Midian, Moses' father-in-law, heard of all that God had done for Moses, and for Israel his people, how that Yahweh had brought Israel out of Egypt.
2 Jethro, Moses' father-in-law, received Zipporah, Moses' wife, after he had sent her away,
3 and her two sons. The name of one son was Gershom,{'Gershom' sounds like the Hebrew for 'an alien there.'} for Moses said, 'I have lived as a foreigner in a foreign land'.
4 The name of the other was Eliezer,{Eliezer means 'God is my helper.'} for he said, 'My father's God was my help and delivered me from Pharaoh's sword.'
