First of all, I'd ask you who was the mother of Yekutiel? You should know her, as her son was a leading character of the Old Testament. She was the first woman in the Bible whose name is compounded with the name of Jehovah God. We don't actually learn her godly name right away. She is just called a Levite woman.

Jochebed was a mother who was incredibly confident, creative, and courageous! Her son was, in my opinion, the major character in the Old Testament. Therefore, Jochebed may deserve more recognition than she has been previously given. Our information of her is quite limited, with only short acknowledgments or acclamations in Exodus 2:1-3, Exodus 6:20, and Numbers 26:59. We are not told much about Jochebed. In fact, I can only say she gave birth to three children and was probably born in Goshen, Egypt, but one attribute of hers stands out; the trust she showed in God was beyond reproach.
