Woman living at the time of Egypt and Wilderness

Zipporah

One of the seven daughters of the priest of Midian, whom Moses helped at the well, and whom her father Reuel (Jethro) gave to Moses as his wife (Exodus 2:16–21). She bore him Gershom and, later, Eliezer (Exodus 2:22; 18:3–4). On the way to Egypt, when Yahweh met Moses and wanted to kill him, Zipporah circumcised their son with a flint, and he was spared (Exodus 4:24–26).
