Parshas Hashavua
Shemos
The sixth reason
Rashi gives one of the five*
reasons mentioned
in Midrash, why יוכבד was
called שפרה,
"because she cleaned up
the baby after birth".
The Bal Haturim gives an
additional reason
that the name comes from the
word שפופרת
(tube)
C.P.R.
She had a tube to blow air
into the lungs of
babies who didn't
breath.
