Let sisters not begrudgn the time and

will come back to you again.
Don't snub him. Don't dcpreciate his
ability, Don't talk diseouragugly about
his future. Don't let Miriam get down or
the bank of the Nile and wade out and upset
the ark of bulrushcs. Don't tease him.
Don't let Jealousy ever touch a sisters
soul a il SO often does, because her brother
gets more honor or more means. Even
Miriam, the heroine of the text. was struck
by that evil passion Of jealousy. She had
possessed unlimited influence over Moses,
