📚 Historical Context
Moses is speaking to his father-in-law Hobab (also called Jethro), trying to persuade him to accompany the Israelites as they travel from Mount Sinai toward the Promised Land. Hobab knew the wilderness well and could serve as a guide, so Moses is offering him full partnership in whatever blessings God would give to Israel during their journey.
