Andy Warhol's portrait of Louis Brandeis, the first Jewish Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States

Jethro tells Moses
You can’t be the only judge
It’s too exhausting

Delegate the work
Appoint judges for thousands,
Hundreds, fifties, tens

And Moses did this.
The first time a Jewish man
Took in-laws’ advice?
