<p> <strong> ETHIOPIAN WOMAN </strong> . According to Numbers 12:1 (JE [Note: [[Jewish]] Encyclopedia.] ), when the children of [[Israel]] were at Hazeroth, [[Miriam]] and [[Aaron]] ‘spake against’ [[Moses]] on account of his marriage with an [[Ethiopian]] (RV [Note: [[Revised]] Version.] ‘Cushite’) woman. As the ‘Ethiopian woman’ is mentioned nowhere else, and the death of Moses’ wife [[Zipporah]] is not recorded, some of the early interpreters thought the two must be identical; and this view is favoured by the Jewish expositors. But it is more likely that a black slave-girl is meant, and that the fault found by Miriam and Aaron was with the indignity of such a union. It may perhaps be inferred from the context that the marriage was of recent occurrence. </p> | |||

<p> Ethio'pian Woman. The wife of [[Moses]] is to described in Numbers 12:1 as an [[Ethiopian]] woman. She is elsewhere said to have been the daughter of a Midianite, and in consequence of this, some have supposed that the allusion is to another wife, whom Moses married, after the death of Zipporah. </p> | |||

<p> (Hebrews Kshith', כֻּשַׁית, fem. of Cushite; Sept. Αἰθιοπίσσα, Vulg. AEthiopissa). Zipporah, the wife of Moses, is so described in Numbers 12:1. She is elsewhere said to have been the daughter of a [[Midianite]] (Exodus 2:21, compared with 16), and, in consequence of this, Ewald and others have suppiosed that the allusion is to another wife whom [[Moses]] married after the death of Zipporah; but the [[Arabian]] [[Ethiopia]] is probably referred to in this case. (See [[Zipporah]]). </p> | |||
