This was the admonition of Raguel; and Moses received his advice
very kindly, and acted according to his suggestion. Nor did he conceal
the invention of this method, nor pretend to it himself, but informed the
multitude who it was that invented it: nay, he has named Raguel in the
books he wrote, as the person who invented this ordering of the people,
as thinking it right to give a true testimony to worthy persons, although
he might have gotten reputation by ascribing to himself the inventions
of other men; whence we may learn the virtuous disposition of Moses: but
of such his disposition, we shall have proper occasion to speak in other
places of these books.
