Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Why does Macbeth feel he can ignore the first apparition’s warning? He knows Macduff was born of woman, so he doesn’t need to fear Macduff.
Detailed explanation-2: -DAVINA: Macduff is saying that he wasn’t born through the normal birthing process. Instead, his mother’s abdomen was cut open and he was removed directly from the womb, presumably because his mother was dying.
Detailed explanation-3: -Although Macbeth believes that he cannot be killed by any man born of a woman, he soon learns that Macduff was “from his mother’s womb / Untimely ripped” (Act V Scene 8 lines 2493/2494)-meaning that Macduff was born by caesarean section.
