Did Moshe Need Yitro's Advice? – Neima Novetsky – ALHATORAH.ORG
Update: 2019-01-24
Description
Shemot 18 describes how the Israelites wait from morning to night to hear judgment from Moshe. Yitro, recognizing that the situation is untenable, advises Moshe that he should delegate responsibility and appoint judges to share in the burden. Given the somewhat obvious nature of this advice, it is perplexing that Moshe could not figure it out on his own. Why did Moshe, the greatest of all prophets, need Yitro to state the obvious? Is it possible that Yitro's suggestion includes more than meets the eye? This Torahcast, brought to you by ALHATORAH.ORG, featuring Neima Novetsky, explores this issue and more.
