“(For Moses was a man exceeding meek above all men that dwelt upon earth)”
On this verse:
“Moreover, Moses himself, in spite of all the great and splendid achievements of faith and patience that are recorded of him, was never so highly praised by God as on this occasion when he took the Ethiopian wife. It is said of him, in reference to this: "Moses was a man exceeding meek above all men that are upon earth."”
