Éxodo 2:4 Meaning and Commentary

Exodus 2:4

And his sister stood afar off
This was Miriam, as the Targum of Jonathan expresses it; who is supposed to be about ten or twelve years of age, others say seven: she was placed F5, as the word may be rendered, by her parents, or, "she placed herself" F6, by their instruction, at some distance from the place where the ark was, that she might not be observed and be thought to belong to it, and yet so near as to observe what became of it, which was the intent of her standing there, as follows:

to wit what would be done to him;
to know, take notice, and observe, what should happen to it, if anyone took it up, and what they did with it, and where they carried it, for, "to wit" is an old English word, which signifies "to know", and is the sense of the Hebrew word to which it answers, see ( 2 Corinthians 8:1 ) .

Éxodo 2:4 In-Context

2 La mujer qued贸 embarazada y dio a luz un hijo. Al ver que era un ni帽o excepcional, lo escondi贸 durante tres meses.
3 Cuando ya no pudo ocultarlo m谩s, tom贸 una canasta de juncos de papiro y la recubri贸 con brea y resina para hacerla resistente al agua. Despu茅s puso al ni帽o en la canasta y la acomod贸 entre los juncos, a la orilla del r铆o Nilo.
4 La hermana del beb茅 se mantuvo a cierta distancia para ver qu茅 le pasar铆a al ni帽o.
5 Al poco tiempo, la hija del fara贸n baj贸 a ba帽arse en el r铆o, y sus sirvientas se paseaban por la orilla. Cuando la princesa vio la canasta entre los juncos, mand贸 a su criada que se la trajera.
6 Al abrir la canasta la princesa vio al beb茅. El ni帽o lloraba, y ella sinti贸 l谩stima por 茅l. 芦Seguramente es un ni帽o hebreo禄, dijo.
