Exodus 3:1
ומשה היה רעה את־ צאן יתרו חתנו כהן מדין וינהג את־ הצאן אחר המדבר ויבא אל־ הר האלהים חרבה
המדבר - haMidbar: The Place of Words, Wilderness
And Drawn Out ("Moses") has become him who shepherds the self eternal Flock of His Remnant ("Jethro"), the bridegroom/son-in-law of himself,1 a priest of Strife ("Midian"). And he is driving the self eternal Flock behind the Word-Wilderness, and he is coming in toward the mountain of the Mighty Ones of Desolate ("Horeb").Footnote:
Exo. 3:1 | חתן (chatan) - This Hebrew word means both "bridegroom" and "son-in-law," depending on the context. In a wedding setting, it typically refers to the "bridegroom," but it can also denote a "son-in-law" (the husband of one's daughter).
