After Moses led the Jewish people out of Egypt, he was met by his father-in-law, Jethro, a non-Jewish Midianite priest who shepherded the prophet’s family through the desert to join them on their journey to Israel. During his time with Moses, Jethro offered advice on leadership and the delegation of authority. Temple Sinai Rabbi Daniel Fellman points to this passage as an example for the engagement of non-Jews in synagogues and Jewish life.
