Jon Collins: 我们讨论了出埃及记中七位女性在摩西出生和逃亡过程中的关键作用，她们的行动是上帝拯救以色列人的方式。如果没有她们，出埃及记的故事就不会发生。 Tim Mackie: 我们深入研究了这七位女性，她们分别是两位希伯来女接生婆、摩西的母亲、姐姐米利暗、法老的女儿、法老女儿的侍女以及摩西的妻子西坡拉。她们分别以不同的方式保护摩西的生命，并对抗法老的压迫。 Tamara Knudson: 我分析了出埃及记前四章，指出这些女性角色的重要性。她们的行动与创世纪中夏娃和挪亚的故事形成对比和呼应，展现了她们在面对法老的压迫时，如何保护和促进生命，她们的行为也预示着耶稣的到来。她们的勇气和智慧，即使在弱势地位下，也展现了对上帝的敬畏和对生命的珍视。她们的行动也预示着以色列民族的使命，以及日后民族间的合作。 Tim Mackie: 我们还讨论了西坡拉在摩西逃亡过程中阻止上帝杀死摩西的故事，以及这个故事与逾越节的联系。西坡拉的行动展现了女性在上帝拯救计划中的关键作用，也预示着逾越节中上帝既带来审判又带来拯救的主题。 Tamara Knudson: 此外，我还分析了圣经中其他以女性为开端的故事，例如约书亚记、士师记、路得记、撒母耳记上和以斯帖记，以及新约中的马利亚和伊丽莎白。这些故事都展现了女性在面对压迫和困境时所展现的勇气和智慧，以及她们在上帝拯救计划中的重要作用。这些女性角色通常处于弱势地位，但她们却能洞察上帝的旨意，并以行动来回应。

The Exodus Way E13 (Bonus Interview) — The exodus from Egypt was a foundational story for ancient Israel, but without a special group of seven often overlooked women, the exodus would have never happened!
