Attracting conversion

Hi,

"When Israel fulfills Gd's will, Gd scours the world, finds righteous people and brings them to Israel, like Yitro and Rachav."

(Talmud Yerushalmi, Berachot 2:8)

Have a great day,
Mordechai

Yitro and Moshe

Hi,

One to ponder:

"Yitro said to him: Accept my condition and I will give her to you as a wife: Your first son should be for idolatry, and the rest for Heaven. Moshe accepted this. He said, 'Swear to me,' and Moshe swore to him."

(Midrash, Mechilta d'R' Yishmael to Yitro, Masechta d'Amalek 1)

Have a great day,
Mordechai

Moshe and Yitro cut a deal

Hi,

Here's one that requires much thought:

"Yitro made a condition with Moshe that he circumcise one of his sons and leave the other one."

(Midrash Aggadah, Shemot 18:3)

Have a great day,
Mordechai
