τρῐμην-ος G5150
three months, a three-month period
Hebrews 11:23 mentions that Moses' parents hid him for three months after his birth, defying Pharaoh's decree to kill Hebrew male infants. This specific duration shows both parental love and faith—they saw something special in the child and dared to protect him despite the danger. Three months was as long as they could conceal an infant before the risk became too great, at which point they entrusted him to God through the ark of bulrushes. The timeframe highlights the parents' courage and the providence that preserved Israel's future deliverer.
Sentidos
1. sense 1 — The author of Hebrews celebrates the faith of Moses' parents, who hid him for this specific period despite royal threats. The multilingual evidence—Spanish 'tres meses', French and German 'drei Monate'—consistently specifies the duration. Three months represents the limit of their ability to hide a growing, active baby in secret. Their faith sustained them through this dangerous period, and their courage in both hiding and then releasing Moses into God's care made possible the entire exodus narrative. The precise timeframe emphasizes the historical reality of their act of faith. 1×
