Description
Pharaoh’s daughter receives the infant Moses from a woven basket among the reeds of the Nile, surrounded by her attendants in royal Egyptian dress. Across the water, a young girl watches from the rushes, representing Miriam, who has followed the ark of bulrushes to see what will become of her brother. The riverbank, papyrus grasses, lotus flowers, and distant Egyptian buildings place the moment in the world of Exodus.
The scene portrays the providence of God in preserving the deliverer of Israel. Moses is not rescued through armies or power, but through the compassion of an Egyptian princess and the courage of his family. This artwork is well suited for teaching on Exodus 2, God’s protection of children, divine calling, adoption, and the hidden ways God prepares redemption.
