When Yitro (Jethro) the High Priest of Midian, expert practitioner of all forms of idol worship, tells his son in law Moses, "'Blessed be HaShem, who has delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians... Now I know that HaShem is greater than all gods...'" it is an unparalleled sanctification of G-d's name. Yitro (Exodus 18:1-20:23) Parashat Yitro is read on Shabbat: Shvat 19, 5768/January 26, 2008 http://www.templeinstitute.org/
