Exodus (pt. 4)Pharaoh's daughter has a remarkable place in redemptive history. She rescued Moses – the future redeemer of Israel - from certain death and raised him as "her son" under the nose of the Pharaoh who wanted to have him killed. Her compassion and moral courage compelled her to disobey her father's command in the name of saving a human life. Does God reward her for her courage and actions? Later in the Old Testament, there is an indication that the answer is yes! The Sages of Israel noted a remarkable "measure for measure" in which God provides a reciprocal blessing for her heroic actions.
