Clarke's Bible Commentary - Exodus 2:16
Verse 16. The priest of Midian] Or prince, or both; for the original hk cohen has both meanings. See it explained at large, See the note on "Gen. xv. 18". The transaction here very nearly resembles that mentioned Gen. xxix. concerning Jacob and Rachel; see the notes there.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 16-22 - Moses found shelter in Midian. He was ready to help Reuel's daughter to water their flocks, although bred in learning and at court. Mose loved to be doing justice, and to act in defence of such as he saw injured, which every man ought to do, as far as it is in his power. He loved to be doing good; wherever the providence of God casts us, we should desire and try to be useful; and when we cannot do the good we would, we must be ready to do the good we can. Moses commended himsel to the prince of Midian; who married one of his daughters to Moses, by whom he had a son, called Gershom, "a stranger there," that he migh keep in remembrance the land in which he had been a stranger.
