Puah was one of two named midwives of the Hebrews in Egypt. The midwives were ordered by the king of Egypt (Pharoah) to kill all the male infants of the Hebrews at birth. Puah and her colleague Shiphrah defied this command through trickery by saying that the Hebrew women are literally "beasts" (NRSV, "vigorous") who give birth before the midwives can get to them.
