We commonly refer to Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, and Leah as the Matriarchs. But in the Passover story, there are FIVE very important women who made incredible contributions to the journey of the Israelites, freeing the Israelites from Slavery:</p>\n\n<p><strong>Shipharh</strong> and <strong>Puah</strong>, the two Hebrew midwives, who defied Pharoah’s orders to kill all Hebrew baby boys and actually hid and saved them.</p>\n\n<p>Exodus 1:17, p. 114 JPS “The midwives, fearing God, did not do as the king had told them, they let the boys live”</p>\n\n<p><strong>Yocheved,</strong> Moses’ mother, who hid baby Moses for three months from the Egyptians, and built a miniature Ark (Teyvat) to float the baby to safety.</p>\n\n<p>Exodus 2:2, p. 114 JPS</p>\n\n<p><strong>Bit Ya</strong>, Pharaoh’s daughter who boldly ignored her father’s decree to kill all Hebrew baby boys, and she found Moses’ Ark (Basket) floating in the Nile.</p>\n\n<p>Exodus 2:6, p. 114 “She took pity on it and said, “This must be a Hebrew Child” and then she named the baby boy Moses and raised him in the Palace.” No one knows Moses’ real name. The only name for Moses that we know (To Draw Out), is the name that Pharaoh’s Daughter named the baby boy.</p>\n\n<p>Later God said to Pharaoh’s Daughter, “Moses was not your son, yet you called him your son. You too, are not My daughter, yet I will call you My daughter, Bat Ya, the daughter of God.”<br />\nAccording to legend, Bitya never died. She joined a small and celebrated group who ascended to heaven while still alive.</p>\n\n<p><strong>Miriam</strong>, Moses’ sister who arranged for Moses’ own birth mother Yocheved to serve as Moses’ nurse in the Palace. Miriam later became the first prophetess.</p>\n\n<p>Exodus 2:7-9, p. 114 JPS</p>\n\n<p>http://breakingmatzo.com/over-the-top/the-role-of-women-in-the-exodus-story/</p>\n\n\n", "cliptype": "text", "clipsource": "http://breakingmatzo.com/over-the-top/the-role-of-women-in-the-exodus-story/", "featured": 0, "featuredIn": null, "is_public": 1, "is_published": 1, "media": { "image": null, "audio": null, "video": null }, "thumbnail": null, "clip_section": [ { "haggadah_section": "Maggid - Beginning", "slug": "maggid-beginning" } ], "likes": 0, "downloads": 180, "tags": [], "themes": [], "language": "0", "is_bookmarked": "0", "is_liked": 0, "meta_tags": { "title": "Women in the Haggadah | Passover haggadah by Temple Sinai", "description": "Our simple platform allows you to create a custom Passover Haggadah, with access to unique content contributed by our community.
