What does the Bible say about Jethro's knowledge of God?

Answered in 1 source

Jethro recognizes the Lord's supremacy, declaring 'now I know that the Lord is greater than all gods' (Exodus 18:11).

In Exodus 18:11, Jethro articulates his understanding of God's supremacy with the statement, 'now I know that the Lord is greater than all gods.' Before this, as a priest of Midian, he held a reverence for God, but his encounter with Moses and the realities of God's deliverance deepened his assurance. This declaration signifies a pivotal moment where he acknowledges not only God's power but also His unique authority over all other spiritual beings. For believers, this acknowledgment is essential, as it calls us to a rightful understanding of God's absolute sovereignty, contrasting the impotent idols that people may worship.
