The midwives, however, feared God and did not do what the king of Egypt had told them to do; they let the boys live.
II Peter 2:17 says, "...Fear God, honor the king." A true trophy wife shows proper respect to everyone, but she puts God first always, in everything. God before husband, God before children, God before earthly authorities, God before self.
It's interesting to note that the midwives are named (Shiphrah and Puah, v. 15), and yet Pharaoh is not. God honors our obedience.
