As we study through the women of The Hall of Faith, (also known as The Faithful Hall of Fame) in Hebrews 11, we are going to come to a couple of women who aren’t even mentioned directly. Jochebed just so happens to be one of the women on that list.

Even though Jochebed isn’t directly mentioned in Hebrews, and only gets a short story in Exodus, she is one of the most influencial wom in the Bible! Honestly, she’s one of the most influential Bible characters at all!
Here are the two passages, about Jochedbed, that we will be looking at:
By faith Moses’ parents hid him for three months after he was born, because they saw he was no ordinary child, and they were not afraid of the king’s edict. – Hebrews 11:23
Then the king of Egypt said to the Hebrew midwives, one of whom was named Shiphrah and the other Puah, “When you serve as midwife to the Hebrew women and see them on the birthstool, if it is a son, you shall kill him, but if it is a daughter, she shall live.” But the midwives feared God and did not do as the king of Egypt commanded them, but let the male children live. So the king of Egypt called the midwives and said to them, “Why have you done this, and let the male children live?” The midwives said to Pharaoh, “Because the Hebrew women are not like the Egyptian women, for they are vigorous and give birth before the midwife comes to them.” So God dealt well with the midwives. And the people multiplied and grew very strong. And because the midwives feared God, he gave them families. Then Pharaoh commanded all his people, “Every son that is born to the Hebrews you shall cast into the Nile, but you shall let every daughter live.” – Exodus 1:15-22
I hope that this Hebrews 11 Bible Study, over these great women of faith, gives you some spiritual motivation and that it encourages you to have a greater faith, like Jochebed! Now, get out there and go do good!
