The Baby in the Basket: Exodus 2:1-10

Now a man of the tribe of Levi married a Levite woman, and she became pregnant and gave birth to a son.

In the midst of genocide, life continued. A Levite couple. A pregnancy. A son born into a death sentence.

When she saw that he was a fine child, she hid him for three months.

Fine—the Hebrew suggests goodness, beauty. Tov—the same word God used for creation. She saw he was good. And so she defied Pharaoh's order.
