EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the defiant resolve of the two Egyptian midwives, Shiphrah and Puah, as they refuse to carry out Pharaoh's cruel edict to smother every newborn male Hebrew child. The Pharaoh, consumed by his jealousy of the growing Hebrew population, had ordered the midwives to commit infanticide, believing that the Hebrews were a threat to Egyptian dominance. However, Shiphrah and Puah, who were themselves Hebrew women, chose to disobey the Pharaoh's command and instead, worked tirelessly to save the lives of the Hebrew babies. Their actions were not only a testament to their bravery and compassion but also a reflection of their unwavering faith in God. The Bible recounts that God was pleased with the midwives' refusal to carry out the Pharaoh's orders and blessed them for their courage. This event is a significant one in the history of the Hebrews, as it marked the beginning of God's intervention in their struggle for survival in Egypt. The image portrays the midwives in the midst of their work, surrounded by the chaos of ancient Egypt, yet focused on their mission to save the lives of the Hebrew children. Their faces are etched with determination and resolve, reflecting their deep commitment to their faith and their people. This powerful image is a reminder of the strength and resilience of the human spirit, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds. It is a testament to the enduring power of faith and the courage that comes from standing up for what is right, no matter the cost.
