  • Exod 18:19-26 : 19 Now listen to me; I will give you advice, and may God be with you. You must be the people's representative before God and bring their disputes to Him. 20 Teach them the statutes and the laws, and show them the way they must walk and the work they must do. 21 But select capable men from among all the people—men who fear God, are trustworthy, and hate dishonest gain. Appoint them as officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties, and tens. 22 Let them judge the people at all times. Have them bring every difficult case to you, but have them decide simple cases themselves. That will make your load lighter, because they will share it with you. 23 If you do this and God so commands, you will be able to endure, and all these people will go home satisfied and at peace. 24 Moses listened to his father-in-law’s advice and did everything he said. 25 He chose capable men from all Israel and made them leaders of the people, officials over thousands, hundreds, fifties, and tens. 26 They judged the people at all times.
