She remains a great example of a courageous, faithful woman for us today. She was beautiful outwardly, but even more inwardly. Modeling ourselves after her, we too can have, “the incorruptible beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit” (I Peter 3:4).

Eve, the mother of us all, gave birth to a godly line that still exists today. There have been millions of believers who have put their faith in the One Who crushed the serpent’s head. The second legacy that Eve has left will last for eternity. Happily, millions of her redeemed offspring will be united in Heaven with her celebrating at the banquet with the Lord.

Pharaoh had the power of an absolute ruler and expected to be obeyed, but he was thwarted by the humble courage of two brave women, Shiphrah and Puah.
