Num 12:1

And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman.

My Catholic Bible says "Cushite" (with a "c" instead of the alternate "k" you cited earlier, both meaning the same, as happens with these terms).

Exodus 1:16 begins the telling of Moses meeting Zipporah (spelling in my Bible, different than the movie character, too), a Midian.

How right you are!!!

"Num 12:1

And Miriam and Aaron spake against Moses because of the Ethiopian woman whom he had married: for he had married an Ethiopian woman."

I thought the criticism by Miriam was handling nicely. Even then God wasn't happy about racism.

skipping down to:

Numbers 12:9-10

[9] And the anger of the LORD was kindled against them; and he departed.

[10] And the cloud departed from off the tabernacle; and, behold, Miriam became leprous, white as snow: and Aaron looked upon Miriam, and, behold, she was leprous.

Miriam got her just deserts etc..
