Acts 7:23-25

Expanded Bible

²³ “When Moses was about forty years old, ·he thought it would be good [^Lit rose up in his heart] to visit his own ·people [relatives; ^Lbrothers (and sisters)], the ·people [^Lsons; children] of Israel. ²⁴ Moses saw an Egyptian ·mistreating [wronging] one of his people, so he defended the ·Israelite [^Loppressed man] and ·punished the Egyptian by killing him [^Lavenged him by striking down the Egyptian; Ex. 2:11–12]. ²⁵ Moses ·thought [assumed] his own ·people [relatives; ^Lbrothers (and sisters)] would understand that God was using him to save them, but they did not.
