And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite, Moses' father in law,
quickly to put to death the Israelite who brought a Midianite woman into the camp,“ the scourge was halted.”.
Moses may have grown up a prince of Egypt, he may have spent 40 years in Midian,
married a Midianite, but he was a Hebrew.
and he was bringing near to his brothers a Midianite woman before Moses' eyes and before the eyes of all the assembly of the sons of Israel,
Gideon followed Deborah as the fifth Judge.
He led the Israelites for forty years and saved them from about 125 thousand Midianite invaders with a meagre 300 soldiers at his disposal,
so says the story.
Moses said to Hobab, the son of Reuel the Midianite, Moses' father-in-law,"We are journeying to the place
of which Yahweh said,'I will give it to you.' Come with us, and we will treat you well; for Yahweh has spoken good concerning Israel.
And Moses said unto Hobab, the son of Raguel the Midianite, Moses' father in law,
We are journeying unto the place of which the LORD said, I will give it you: come thou with us, and we will do thee good: for the LORD hath spoken good concerning Israel.
