Bible Note: Hi Makarios, Another thing to remember regarding the Hebrew midwives, is that God had not yet given the Law, and we know from Romans 5 that God does not impute sin when the Law has not been given. Rom 5:13 "for until the Law sin was in the world, but sin is not imputed when there is no law." I guess I see things in black and white, and you see in shades of grey. But who defines the grey?
