| In Shemot 18:6, it is written, "He said to Moshe, 'I (Yisro) your father-in-law, have come to you, along with your wife and your sons.'"
Rashi comments, "If you do not come out for my sake, then come out for your wife's sake. And if you do not come for your wife's sake, then come for your children's sake."
Yisro was Moshe's father-in-law who took Moshe, a fugitive, into his home in Midian and gave his daughter to Moshe in marriage. Yisro likely felt that Moshe would show gratitude for the kindness he had received. So, why did Yisro say, "If you do not come out for my sake, then come out for your wife's sake, and if you do not come for your wife's sake, then come for your children's sake"?
The answer lies in Yisro's profound humility. Just as Moshe was known as the humblest man on earth, Yisro also displayed remarkable humility. This characteristic is essential for receiving the Torah, which is why Yisro merited to be mentioned in the Parashah of the Torah at Mount Sinai.
Today: Strive to cultivate humility by recognizing your own shortcomings, making yourself worthy of receiving the Torah.
