Amram

Portrait of Amram

Amram was a man in the land of Egypt of the seed of Levi, the son of Kehath, the son of Levi, the son of Israel. He is called the father who remained in the mountains of Hebron with a few others and who taught writing. Miriam was his daughter and the sister of Aaron; after hearing her prophecy he took his wife back to the house, having earlier driven her away when Pharaoh ordered every male child of the house of Jacob thrown into the water.
