Micah 6:4

For I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of servants; and I sent before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.

For - nay, on the contrary, so far from doing anything harsh, I did thee every kindness from the earliest years of thy nationality: for instance.

I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt... and I sent before thee ... Miriam-mentioned as being the prophetess who led the female chorus who sang the song of Moses (). God sent Moses to give the best laws; Aaron to pray for the people; Miriam as an example to the women of Israel
