  • Ned on Exodus 1:19 - 9 years ago
    I think the verse is a statement of facts as the Egyptian midwives saw them. Hebrew women were rural, hardworking unsophisticated. Many delivered their kids in the fields. The more they did this, the easier their future labours became. Egyptian women were urban, sophisticated spoilt. They were more likely to make "a fuss " about having children including using the services of midwives.
