And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, “Take this child away and nurse him for me, and I will give you your wages.” So the woman took the child and nursed him.

A daughter of Pharaoh (king of Egypt) conspires with a daughter of Levi to preserve a messiah of Israel. I don't know what the significance is, but it's interesting.
Maybe Mary's cousin Elizabeth had some role in Joseph taking his family to Egypt to escape Herod, a daughter of King David and a daughter of Levi.
Women take center stage in the first part of Moses' life story: Jochebed, Miriam, Bithiah, and Zipporah. Women received and preserved Israel's messiah in Egypt, Moses. This same pattern would play out again centuries later with Israel's ultimate Messiah and King, #yeshua.
A chiasm spans the story of Moses' birth and centers on Miriam witnessing the events. I suspect this means that Miriam is the original source of the material in #exodus 1:5-2:15.

All life is precious, but is some life more precious than others? Maybe it's best we leave that question up to the Creator. In the meantime, let's do our best to value the life we have from Him, and the lives He brings around us.

Question 130: Did Peter go to Rome?
Answer:
There is nothing in the book of Romans to indicate Peter's presence in Rome at any time, but that is merely negative evidence. If he ever visited Rome, it was probably during the last year of his life, although Eusebius in the Chronicon says he visited it in A. D. 42. Jerome also mentions Peter's visit to Rome. Catholic writers assert that he was there for a number of years. There is no evidence of the fact in the New Testament books. It is generally accepted however, that he was in Rome in his last year when he became a martyr as our Saviour predicted (John 21:18, 19). Dionysus of Corinth writes that Peter and Paul suffered martyrdom in Italy together. Irenams confirms his presence in Rome. Caius, Origen, Tertullian and others bear similar testimony.
