"Miriam's Song of the Sea"
"Shirat Hayam"
"Sing to the Lord, for he is highly exalted"
~Exodus 15:20-21
The Bible records that after the Children of Israel escaped a vengeful Pharaoh and his Egyptian chariots by miraculously passing through the Red Sea, also known as the Sea of Reeds, the prophetess Miriam led the Israelite women in song and dance, in celebration of their freedom and in thanks to God. Miriam, Moses' older sister, is the first woman ever to bear the title of prophet, thereby becoming the archetype of the female prophetic tradition.
"I stand at the sea and turn
to face the desert stretching endless and still.
My eyes are dazzled. The sky brilliant blue
Sunburnt sands unyielding white.
My hands turn to dove wings.
My arms reach for the sky and I want to sing the song rising inside me.
~ From Rabbi Ruth Sohn's Poem "Song of Miriam"
Whether gracing your daughter's wall or the entrance to a house of worship, this art work, quilled in gorgeous shades of blue, is a true celebration of freedom and hope, perseverance and praise.
