But the midwives feared God and did not do as the king of Egypt commanded them, but let the male children live.
#exodus 1:17 #shmot

The Hebrew midwives conspired just like Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel, and Leah, but in a good way. It's not always wrong to lie or disobey the government, and there is no commandment against deceiving your enemies to gain advantage or to save lives. Fear God rather than man and don't elevate peace or conformity above his instructions.
