19
Et les sages-femmes répondirent à Pharaon : parce que les Hébreues ne sont point comme les femmes Egyptiennes; car elles sont vigoureuses, [et] elles ont accouché avant que la sage-femme soit arrivée chez elle.
Exode 1:19
Egyptians
Egyptians represent people who are in natural knowledge. In contrast, the Hebrews, people who are of the church, represent people in spiritual knowledge. The Egyptians also held the Hebrews to be so vile, as servants, that it was an abomination to them to eat with the Hebrews (Genesis 43:32), and also the sacrifices offered by the Hebrews were an abomination to them. (Exodus 8:26)
