Midwifery

“During her severe labor, the midwife said to her, “Do not be afraid, for you are having another son.””

“Then the king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, whose names were Shiphrah and Puah,”

“On the day of your birth your cord was not cut, nor were you washed with water for cleansing. You were not rubbed with salt or wrapped in cloths.”
