Where do you find moses's birth mother in the bible?

Answer 1

Exodus 6:20 clearly states that Amram & Jochebed were the father & mother of Moses -- not Yocheved, as the previous answer claimed.

According to Torah, Jochebed Hebrew_language: 'יוֹכֶבֶד / יוֹכָבֶHebrew_language#Modern_Hebrew Yoḫéved / Yoḫáved

Tiberian_vocalization Yôḵéḇeḏ / Yôḵāḇeḏ ; Yaw_(god) is glory/Tetragrammaton is glory") was the mother of Aaron, Moses, and Miriam, and the wife of Amram. Jochebed is also described as being related to Amram prior to her marriage to him, although the exact relationship is uncertain; some Greek and Latin manuscripts of the Septuagint state that Jochebed was Amram's father's cousin, and others state that Jochebed was Amram's cousin, but the Masoretic_text states that she was Incest - although Jochebed's relationship toLevi is not explicitly stated. In the Apocrypha it is stated that Jochebed was born, as a daughter of Levi, when Levi was 64 years old. Textual scholars attribute the genealogy to the Book_of_Generations, a document originating from a similar religiopolitical group and date to the Priestly_source. According to biblical scholars, the Torah's genealogy for Levi's descendants, is actually an Aetiology Myth reflecting the fact that there were four different groups among the Levites - the Gershonite, Kohathite, Merarite, and Aaronids; Aaron - the eponymous ancestor of the Aaronids - couldn't be portrayed as a brother to Gershon, Kohath, and Merari, as the narrative about the birth of Moses (brother of Aaron), which textual scholars attribute to the earlier Elohist source, mentions only that both his parents were Levites (without identifying their names). Biblical scholars suspect that the Elohist account Matrilinear_descent and Patrilinear_descent descent from Levites in order to magnify the religious credentials of Moses.

It has been proposed by a number of Biblical scholars that Ichabod and Jacob may ultimately be linguistic corruptions of Jochebed, and possibly once have referred to the same individual

According to Jewish legend, Jochebed's corpse is buried in the Tomb_of_the_Matriarchs, in Tiberias.
