Acts 7:23-25

New Testament for Everyone

²³ “When he had grown to about forty years old, it came into his heart to see how his family, the children of Israel, were doing. ²⁴ He saw someone being wronged, and came to the man’s defense; he took revenge on behalf of the man who was being oppressed, by striking down the Egyptian. ²⁵ He thought his kinsfolk would grasp the fact that God was sending him to their rescue, but they didn’t.
