Biblical scholars and Christian ministers have long viewed Miriam as an exemplar of female leadership.

This paper contributes to research on youth leadership formation by providing exegetical commentary on Exodus 1–2, with a view to how the text might provide Christian communities clues about what female leaders look like and how to help girls become them.
