I am humble.
I am humble before Hashem, yet I can’t get myself to be humble before other people.
Moshe was humble before other people; he was not humble before Hashem.
He was humble before people - that’s why he masked the radiance of his face while speaking to others.
Yet he removed the mask when he was speaking to Hashem. Because a good student can’t be shy.
You also can’t be shy before if you need to constantly challenge Hashem on behalf of the Jewish people.
Yet the man who stood up to Hashem was humble before people.
Now that’s humility.
(Based on the Kli Yakar)
