Exodus 1:8-2:10A new era has begun in Egypt, and the new Pharaoh views the Israelites with fear and suspicion. Baby Moses is in danger but, aided by God, the midwives, Moses’ mother and sister, and even Pharaoh’s daughter take steps to protect him.
In the struggle and suffering of the Israelites, we see the people standing up for what is right. What issues of injustice might God be encouraging us to stand up against?
