After their coming up out of Egypt, during their abode in the Wilderness, Moses presided over them with all manner of Authority, as their Law-giver, King and Judge. He judged and determined all their causes, as is frequently affirmed, and that alone, until by the advice of Jethro, he took in others unto his assistance, Exod. 15.16.25. And there is mention of four particular cases that he determined. One Religious, one Civil, and two Capital relating to Religion; in these he made especial enquiry of God. The first was about the Unclean that would keep the Passover, Numb. 9.7, 8. The second about the daughters of Zelophead, who claimed their Inheritance, Numb. 27. 4, 5.
