"He dwelled in the land of Midian and sat by the well" - he followed the footsteps of the patriarchs, for three of them found their partners from the well: Isaac, Jacob, and Moses...

Immediately, Tzipporah ran after him like a bird and brought him (to her father's house)...

"He gave his daughter Tzipporah to Moses." It doesn't say here "as a wife," like the Torah normally would. "As a wife" would mean "to sustain his life and to be his helper." But this was not the case with Moses, who was different from other people, and she was not his helper.

Those who interpret hidden things say that Tzipporah in gematria is "to Moshe." (375)

She was named Tzipporah, from tzipor, which is a pure bird, because she was destined to convert, purify herself from idolatry, and partner with Moses.
