She is the sister of Moses and Aaron, and her account is primarily found in the books of Exodus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.<br><br><b>Early Life and Role in Moses' Survival</b><br><br>Miriam first appears in the biblical narrative in <a href="/exodus/2.htm">Exodus 2:1-10</a>. Although not named in this passage, she is traditionally identified as the sister who watches over the infant Moses after he is placed in a basket on the Nile River. When Pharaoh's daughter discovers the child, Miriam courageously approaches her and offers to find a Hebrew nurse for the baby, thus ensuring that Moses' own mother is able to care for him during his early years.<br><br><b>Prophetess and Leader</b><br><br>Miriam is explicitly called a prophetess in <a href="/exodus/15-20.htm">Exodus 15:20</a>. After the Israelites cross the Red Sea and witness the destruction of the Egyptian army, Miriam leads the women in a song of triumph and praise to God. This event highlights her role as a spiritual leader and her gift of prophecy. The passage states: "Then Miriam the prophetess, Aaron&#8217;s sister, took a tambourine in her hand, and all the women followed her with tambourines and dancing" (<a href="/exodus/15-20.htm">Exodus 15:20</a>).<br><br><b>Rebellion and Consequences</b><br><br>Miriam's leadership is further illustrated in <a href="/bsb/numbers/12.htm">Numbers 12</a>, where she and Aaron speak against Moses because of his Cushite wife. The text suggests that Miriam is the instigator of this challenge to Moses' authority. As a result, God punishes her with leprosy, causing her to be isolated from the camp for seven days. This incident underscores the seriousness of challenging God's appointed leaders and serves as a reminder of the importance of humility and obedience. <a href="/numbers/12-10.htm">Numbers 12:10-15</a> describes this event, noting that "the cloud lifted from above the Tent, suddenly Miriam became leprous, as white as snow" (<a href="/numbers/12-10.htm">Numbers 12:10</a>).<br><br><b>Death and Legacy</b><br><br>Miriam's death is recorded in <a href="/numbers/20.htm">Numbers 20:1</a>, which states, "In the first month, the whole congregation of Israel entered the Wilderness of Zin, and the people stayed at Kadesh. There Miriam died and was buried" (<a href="/numbers/20.htm">Numbers 20:1</a>). Her passing marks the end of an era for the Israelites, as she was a key figure during their journey from slavery to the brink of the Promised Land.<br><br>Miriam's legacy is one of faith, leadership, and the complexities of human nature. She is remembered as a woman of strength and influence, whose life and actions had a significant impact on the history of Israel. Her account serves as an example of both the blessings and challenges that come with leadership and the importance of remaining faithful to God's calling.<a name="hit" id="hit"></a><div class="vheading2">Hitchcock's Bible Names Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Miriam</span><p>rebellion<a name="smi" id="smi"></a><div class="vheading2">Smith's Bible Dictionary</div><span class="encheading">Miriam</span><p>(<i>rebellion</i>), the sister of Moses, was the eldest of that sacred family; and she first appears, probably as a young girl, watching her infant brother's cradle in the Nile, (<a href="/exodus/2-4.htm">Exodus 2:4</a>) and suggesting her mother as a nurse. ver. 7.
