Exodus 2:3

Jewish Publication Society 1917 · Berean Standard Bible

2:3
And when she could not longer hide him, she took for him an ark of bulrushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch; and she put the child therein, and laid it in the flags by the river’s brink.
But when she could no longer hide him, she got him a papyrus basket (note: The Hebrew can also mean ark; also in verse 5; see Genesis 6:14.) and coated it with tar and pitch. Then she placed the child in the basket and set it among the reeds along the bank of the Nile.
