Now these are the names of the sons of Israel, who came into Egypt (every man and his household came with Jacob): 1Ch 2:1-2Gen 46:8-26Gen 35:23-261Ch 12:23-40Exo 6:14-16Gen 29:31Gen 35:18Gen 49:3-27 Reuben, Simeon, Levi, and Judah, Gen 35:22 Issachar, Zebulun, and Benjamin, Exo 28:20Gen 35:23 Dan and Naphtali, Gad and Asher. All the souls who came out of Jacob’s body were seventy souls, and Joseph was in Egypt already. Deu 10:22Gen 46:26-27Jdg 8:30Exo 1:20 Joseph died, as did all his brothers, and all that generation. Gen 50:26Act 7:14-16Gen 50:24 The children of Israel were fruitful, and increased abundantly, and multiplied, and grew exceedingly mighty; and the land was filled with them. Gen 46:3Deu 26:5Gen 1:28Gen 35:11Gen 47:27Gen 9:1Deu 10:22Gen 12:2
Now there arose a new king over Egypt, who didn’t know Joseph. Act 7:18Ecc 2:18-19Ecc 9:15 He said to his people, “Behold, 1 the people of the children of Israel are more and mightier than we. Psa 105:24-25Ecc 4:4Jas 3:14-16Num 22:4-5Pro 14:28Pro 27:4Tit 3:3Jas 4:5 Come, let’s deal wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it happen that when any war breaks out, they also join themselves to our enemies and fight against us, and escape out of the land.” Act 7:19Psa 83:3-4Pro 1:11Psa 105:25Psa 10:21Co 3:18-20Act 23:12Jas 3:15-18 Therefore they set taskmasters over them to afflict them with their burdens. They built storage cities for Pharaoh: Pithom and Raamses. Gen 15:13Exo 2:11Exo 3:7Gen 47:11Deu 26:6Psa 81:61Ki 9:192Ch 8:4 But the more they afflicted them, the more they multiplied and the more they spread out. They started to dread the children of Israel. Psa 105:24Exo 1:9Rom 8:28Act 5:28-33Act 4:2-4Jhn 12:19Pro 27:4Heb 12:6-11 The Egyptians ruthlessly made the children of Israel serve, Deu 4:20 and they made their lives bitter with hard service in mortar and in brick, and in all kinds of service in the field, all their service, in which they ruthlessly made them serve. Act 7:19Num 20:15Exo 2:23Exo 6:9Act 7:34Isa 58:6Psa 81:6Deu 26:6
The king of Egypt spoke to the Hebrew midwives, of whom the name of the one was Shiphrah, and the name of the other Puah, and he said, “When you perform the duty of a midwife to the Hebrew women, and see them on the birth stool, if it is a son, then you shall kill him; but if it is a daughter, then she shall live.” Exo 1:22Mat 21:38Rev 12:4 But the midwives feared God, 2 and didn’t do what the king of Egypt commanded them, but saved the baby boys alive. Act 5:29Exo 1:21Ecc 12:13Luk 12:5Mat 10:28Act 4:18-20Dan 3:16-18Dan 6:13 The king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said to them, “Why have you done this thing and saved the boys alive?” Ecc 8:42Sa 13:28
The midwives said to Pharaoh, “Because the Hebrew women aren’t like the Egyptian women; for they are vigorous and give birth before the midwife comes to them.” 2Sa 17:19-20Jos 2:4-241Sa 21:2
God dealt well with the midwives, and the people multiplied, and grew very mighty. Ecc 8:12Isa 3:10Pro 11:18Exo 1:12Heb 6:10Psa 111:5Exo 1:7Luk 1:50 Because the midwives feared God, he gave them families. 1Ki 11:381Sa 2:35Psa 37:32Sa 7:27-29Ecc 8:121Ki 2:241Sa 25:282Sa 7:11-13 Pharaoh commanded all his people, saying, “You shall cast every son who is born into the river, and every daughter you shall save alive.” Act 7:19Pro 1:16Exo 1:16Pro 4:16Psa 105:25Rev 16:4-6Exo 7:19-21Gen 41:1
