Episode: Exodus 1 - Shiphrah and Puah
Description: We're starting a season exploring the book of Exodus, and the story opens with a focus on amazing women. By the time baby Moses gets his name in this story, the only other named characters are the midwives Shiphrah and Puah. In fact, almost all the people doing anything proactive are women! We notice a few fresh perspectives on this well-known narrative, and are interested to see how even chapter 1 and 2 set up some of the things that will feature in the Exodus.
