Exodus 2
1.Moses is born, and placed in a basket in the reeds of Nile.
5.He is found, and brought up by Pharaoh's daughter;
7.who employs his mother to nurse him.
11.He kills an Egyptian.

Pharaoh’s daughter said to her
Pharaoh's daughter, a member of the Egyptian royal family, plays a crucial role in the preservation of Moses, who would become a central figure in Israel's history. Her compassion towards the Hebrew child reflects God's providence and intervention. This act of kindness by an Egyptian royal contrasts with Pharaoh's decree to kill Hebrew male infants, highlighting divine orchestration in Moses' survival.

Take this child and nurse him for me
This command signifies a turning point in Moses' early life. The act of nursing by his biological mother, Jochebed, allows Moses to be raised with Hebrew identity and values during his formative years. This arrangement also fulfills God's plan for Moses to be prepared for his future role as a leader of Israel. The cultural practice of wet-nursing was common in ancient times, and it was not unusual for children to be nursed by someone other than their biological mother.

and I will pay your wages
The offer of wages to Jochebed for nursing her own son is an example of God's provision and blessing. It underscores the theme of divine justice and reward, as Jochebed is compensated for her faith and courage in saving Moses. This arrangement also reflects the economic practices of the time, where wet-nurses were often hired and compensated for their services.

So the woman took the boy and nursed him
Jochebed's acceptance of the task to nurse Moses ensures that he is nurtured in the Hebrew faith and culture. This period of nursing, which could last several years, was crucial for Moses' identity formation. The act of nursing symbolizes care, protection, and the transmission of cultural and spiritual values. This phase in Moses' life is foundational for his later role as the deliverer of Israel, drawing a parallel to how Jesus was nurtured in a humble setting before His public ministry.

Divine Provision

The Role of Women in God's Plan
The account highlights the significant roles women played in God's plan for Moses. Both Jochebed and Pharaoh's daughter were instrumental in his survival and upbringing, showing that God values and uses women in His purposes.

What Does Exodus 2:9 Mean
Pharaoh’s daughter said to her

– God works through unexpected agents. The same royal household that had decreed death for Hebrew boys (Exodus 1:22) now shelters one.Proverbs 21:1 reminds us, “The king’s heart is a watercourse in the hand of the LORD; He directs it wherever He pleases,” andPsalm 33:10-11 shows that human plans bow to divine purpose. Pharaoh’s daughter isn’t aware she’s fulfilling God’s plan, yet her compassion becomes the hinge on which Israel’s future leader is preserved.

Take this child

– Moses is identified as a distinct, valuable person, not an anonymous infant.Psalm 127:3 declares, “Children are a heritage from the LORD.” His tiny life carries covenant destiny just asJeremiah 1:5 affirms God’s foreknowledge of every child. The command “take” grants legal, protective custody, reversing the sentence of the Nile (Exodus 1:22) into a commission to guard life.

and nurse him for me

– The princess entrusts Moses’ nurture to his own mother. What looks like coincidence is providence. God provides a safe space and maternal care so early faith can be formed at home (Deuteronomy 6:6-7).Isaiah 49:23 pictures Gentile royalty nursing Israel’s children—here it literally happens as an Egyptian princess bankrolls Hebrew motherhood. The phrase “for me” signals stewardship: Jochebed will nurture, yet the child belongs to a higher purpose, echoing Hannah’s vow in1 Samuel 1:27-28.

and I will pay your wages

– The Lord rewards faith-driven obedience in surprising ways. Jochebed, who risked her life hiding Moses (Hebrews 11:23), now receives royal wages to do what she longed to do anyway.Genesis 15:1 announces God as “your very great reward,” and1 Timothy 5:18 affirms, “The worker is worthy of his wages.” In this scene, divine justice overturns oppression: the empire that enslaved Israel now finances Israel’s deliverer.

So the woman took the boy and nursed him

– Jochebed acts immediately, illustrating faith that expresses itself in concrete care.James 2:17 notes that faith without works is dead; her action pulses with living trust. By nursing Moses, she has precious years to imprint God’s promises, preparing him for the destiny summed up inActs 7:25. As inPsalm 34:8—“Taste and see that the LORD is good”—Moses literally tastes covenant faithfulness at his mother’s breast.

summary

Exodus 2:9 showcases God’s sovereign care woven through human choices. A royal decree could not drown His plan; instead, He turns a river of death into a channel of provision. Pharaoh’s daughter, moved by compassion, commissions Jochebed to rear the child who will one day confront Pharaoh himself. The Lord rescues, remunerates, and readies His servant, proving again that nothing can thwart His purposes or limit His extravagant faithfulness.

(9)Nurse it for me.--The princess adopts Miriam's suggestion; the child is to be nursedfor her--is to be hers. She will place it out to nurse, and pay the customary wages.
