Notes
From a traditional perspective, Miriam, the first female prophet of the Israelites in the Torah, is the sister of Aaron and Moses and one of the important figures of the Exodus from Egypt. However, when looking at the narratives in the holy books and midrash about Miriam from a critical and different perspective, it is seen that she has three different portraits. The first portrait is the unnamed sister watching from a distance as Moses is placed in the water in a basket. In the second depiction, she is depicted as the prophetess Miriam, sister of Aaron during the exodus from Egypt. When this depiction is examined more closely, it can be seen that Miriam, who led the Israelites by dancing with a melody on her tongue and a tambourine in her hand during the exodus from Egypt, was closer to being a priestess with traces of Egypt than to being a prophet. As a matter of fact, seeing Miriam as a nun makes the story of Miriam the Leper more understandable, and punishing her with a physical defect is compatible with the dismissal of a nun in Egypt. The perception of Miriam in the Jewish tradition, especially in the Rabbinic literature, gives her a third portrait. The Midrash literature's portrait of Miriam is based on restoring the dignity that the Torah received from her just before her death, and on seeing her among other important mothers.
