the Story: civil disobedience by ric gustafson
When there is a change of leadership, it is not always smooth. The new leader is not always respected. A change of regime could be disastrous. This was true for the Hebrews under Pharaoh. Pharaoh was aware of the vast number of Israelites. He was afraid that the Hebrews would become Egypt's enemies. So what was Pharaoh's solutions?. One was brutal slavery for God's chosen people. The other was the ruthless slaughter of Hebrew baby boys.
But one woman ignored that slaughter. According to Exodus 2, she hid a Hebrew baby boy for 3 months. The stage was now set for God to work. She chose God's law not the world's rules.
