Jethro
An Old Testament prince and priest of Midian who gave Moses a home after Moses fled from Egypt. He is also called Reuel (Ex. 2:18). Moses later married Jethro’s daughter Zipporah (Ex. 3:1; 4:18; 18:1–12). Jethro taught Moses to delegate (Ex. 18:13–27). Moses received the Melchizedek Priesthood from Jethro (D&C 84:6–7).
