ClVg Dixit autem rex Ægypti obstetricibus Hebræorum, quarum una vocabatur Sephora, altera Phua,[fn]
(He/She_said however king of_Egypt midwives Of_Hebrews, whose together was_called Zipporah, the_other Phuvah,)

1.15 Dixit autem rex Ægypti obstetricibus, etc. ORIG., hom. 2. Hæc non solum in mundo, qui Ægyptus spiritualiter dicitur, sed in unoquoque nostrum deprehendimus: princeps hujus mundi non vult vivificari masculos, sed feminas; in femina caro et affectus carnis designatur: vir autem rationabilis est sensus, et intellectualis est spiritus, qui potest cœlestia capere, Deum intelligere, quæ sursum sunt quærere. Hunc odit princeps Ægypti et necari cupit; cupit autem quæ carnis sunt, vivere, et quæ ad materiam pertinent corporalem, hæ non solum vivere, sed augeri et excoli: vult enim ut omnes carnalia sapiant, temporalia et quæ sunt super terram quærant; nemo levet ad cœlum oculos; nemo requirat unde huc venerit; nemo patriam paradisum recordetur. Cum ergo videris homines in voluptatibus vitam ducere, luxu fluitare, conviviis et impudicitiis operam dare, scito quia in his rex Ægypti masculos necat, et vivificat feminas. Si vero unum de mille ad Deum converti, oculos sursum erigere, æterna quærere, odisse delicias et luxuriam, amare continentiam: istum quasi masculum necari cupit Pharao, persequitur, mille machinis oppugnat; odit tales, vivere in Ægypto non sinit. Inde est quod in hoc mundo servi Dei habentur contemptui, expositi contumeliis; inde in eos odia et persecutiones concitantur. Obstetricibus. ORIG., ibid. Iste etiam obstetrices corrumpere nititur. Quarum una vocabatur Sephora, id est, passer; altera Phua, scilicet rubens vel verecunda; per has necari mares et vivificari feminas quærit: sed et timebant obstetrices Deum, et non sicut præcepit eis, fecerunt. Obstetrices docuerunt ante nos quamdam rationabilis eruditionis formam tenere. Obstetrices enim medicæ sunt, et tam masculos nascentes quam feminas fovent. Eruditio ergo communis est rationabilis scientia, et ad omnem pene pervenit sensum, omnes instruit et fovet. Si quis in ea virilis animi fuerit, qui velit cœlestia quærere, divina sectari, velut medicatus et fortis, per has eruditiones ad divirorum intelligentiam paratior veniret. Est enim una, velut passer, quæ celsiora docet, et rationabilis doctrinæ pennis in altum provocat; altera, rubens vel verecunda, moralis est, mores componit, verecundiam docet et honestatem. Mihi tamen quia dicit Scriptura de his quod timuerunt Deum, et non fecerunt juxta præceptum regis Ægypti videntur utriusque Testamenti figuram servare, et Sephora, quæ passer interpretatur, legi, quæ spiritualis est, convenire: Phua vero, quæ rubens vel verecunda, indicare Evangelia, quæ Christi sanguine rubent, et per universum mundum passionis cruore rutilant. Ab his ergo animæ quæ nascuntur in Ecclesia, velut obstetricibus medicantur, quia de Scripturis cuncta eruditionis medicamina conferuntur. Tentat tamen Pharao per has necare masculos, cum studiosis in divinis Scripturis hæreses et prava dogmata suggerit. Sed stat immobile fundamentum Dei. Timent enim obstetrices Deum, id est, timorem Dei docent, qui est initium sapientiæ. Sic competentius aptatur quod sequitur, quia timebant obstetrices Deum, fecerunt sibi domos. Quod secundum litteram, nullam consequentiam habet: non enim propterea domus fit, quia timetur Deus. Si autem videas quomodo Scripturæ Novi et Veteris Testamenti timorem Dei docentes domos Ecclesiæ faciant, et totum orbem domibus orationis impleant, rationabiliter scriptum videbitur. Sic ergo istæ obstetrices, quia timent Deum, id est, timorem Dei docent, non faciunt præceptum regis Ægypti, sed vivificant masculos, nec tamen dicitur quia paruerunt feminas vivificantes. Ego autem confidenter dico, non vivificant feminas. Neque enim vitia aut luxuria in Ecclesia docentur, aut peccata nutriuntur, quod vult Pharao cum vivificari feminas jubet, sed sola virtus excolitur et nutritur. Verum hæc ad unumquemque referamus. Si times Deum, non facias præceptum regis Ægypti: ille enim præcipit ut in deliciis vivas, præsentia concupiscas; tu, si times Deum, et exhibes officium obstetricis, animæ tuæ si conferre cupis, vivificas masculos, id est, interiorem hominem, qui in te est, medicaris et foves, et per actus et intellectus bonos vitam acquiris æternam.

1.15 He/She_said however king of_Egypt midwives, etc. ORIG., man. 2. These not/no only in/into/on to_the_world, who/which Egypt spiritually it_is_said, but in/into/on each_one our we_detect: prince of_this world not/no wants to_be_given_life males, but women; in/into/on woman flesh/meat and affection/with_feelings of_flesh is_designated: man however rational it_is sense, and intellectual it_is spirit, who/which can heaven to_catch, God to_understand, which up/above are to_seek/search_for. This_one hates prince of_Egypt and to_be_killed desires; desires however which of_flesh are, to_live, and which to material pertinent bodily, these not/no only to_live, but to_be_increased and to_be_strained_out: wants because as everyone carnal_(things) they_may_be_wise, temporal_(things) and which are over the_earth/land they_seek; nobody/no_one may_lift to sky the_eyes; nobody/no_one requires from_where/who here will_have_placed; nobody/no_one homeland paradise may_remember. Since therefore you_see people/men in/into/on pleasures life to_lead, luxury to_float, banquets and sexual_impurities attention dare, know because in/into/on his king of_Egypt males kills, and gives_life women. When/But_if indeed/however one from/about a_thousand to God converted, the_eyes up/above to_erect, eternal to_seek/search_for, to_hate delights and luxury, to_love continence/self-control: that as_if male to_be_killed desires Pharaoh, pursues, a_thousand machines attacks; hates tales, to_live in/into/on to_Egypt not/no allows. Therefore/from_there it_is that in/into/on this to_the_world slaves of_God are_considered contempt, explained insults; therefore/from_there in/into/on them hatred and persecutions they_are_stirred_up. Midwives. ORIG., there. This also midwives to_corrupt relies. Whose together was_called Zipporah, that it_is, sparrow; the_other Phuvah, namely rubens or modest; through has to_be_killed the_seas and to_be_given_life women seeks: but and they_were_afraid midwives God, and not/no like ordered to_them, they_did. Obstetrices they_taught before us a_certain rational education form to_hold. Obstetrices because healing are, and tam males being_born how women they_foster. Education therefore common it_is rational knowledge/skill, and to all almost/nearly arrived sense, everyone instructs and fosters. When/But_if who/any in/into/on them manly of_the_soul has_been, who/which wants heaven to_seek/search_for, divine to_follow, like/as healed and strong/powerful, through has educations to divirorum intelligence more_readily would_come. It_is because together, like/as sparrow, which celsiora teaches, and rational doctrines pens in/into/on high provokes; the_other, rubens or modest, moral it_is, mores composes, shame teaches and honour. To_me nevertheless because he_says Scripture/Writing from/about his that they_were_afraid God, and not/no they_did next_to precept/rule king of_Egypt they_seem of_both Testament figure to_keep, and Zipporah, which sparrow interprets, I_read, which spiritual it_is, to_meet: Phuvah indeed/however, which rubens or modest, to_indicate Evangelia, which of_Christ blood they_are_red, and through whole the_world passion blood they_redden. From his therefore soul which they_are_born in/into/on Assembly/Church, like/as midwives they_are_healed, because from/about About_to_write everything education medicines they_are_brought_together. Tries nevertheless Pharaoh through has to_kill males, when/with eager in/into/on divine About_to_write heresy and wicked dogmas suggests. But stands immobile foundation of_God. They_are_afraid because midwives God, that it_is, fear(n) of_God teach, who/which it_is the_beginning of_wisdom. So more_suitably is_adapted that follows, because they_were_afraid midwives God, they_did to_himself houses. That after/second literally, none consequence has: not/no because therefore home fit, because is_feared God. When/But_if however you_see how Scriptures I_know and Olds Testament fear(n) of_God teachings houses Assemblies/Churches let_them_do_it, and whole the_world houses prayers they_may_fill, reasonably written it_will_be_seen. So therefore these midwives, because they_are_afraid God, that it_is, fear(n) of_God teach, not/no they_do precept/rule king of_Egypt, but give_lifent males, but_not nevertheless it_is_said because they_obeyed women giving_life. I however confidently I_mean/say, not/no give_lifent women. Neither because vices or luxury/extravagance in/into/on Assembly/Church they_are_taught, or sins they_are_nourished, that wants Pharaoh when/with to_be_given_life women commands, but alone virtue is_strained_out and is_nourished. True these_things to each_one let’s_report. When/But_if times God, not/no do precept/rule king of_Egypt: he/that_one because commands as in/into/on delights live, presence you_may_desire; you(sg), when/but_if times God, and exhibits office midwife, soul yours when/but_if to_bring_together you_desire, you_give_life males, that it_is, interior man, who/which in/into/on you(sg) it_is, you_are_healed and you_foster, and through action and understanding goods life you_acquire eternal.
