Acts 7:24-26

Expanded Bible

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. ²⁶ The next day when Moses saw two men of Israel fighting, he tried to ·make peace between [reconcile] them. He said, ‘Men, you are brothers. Why are you ·hurting [wronging] each other?’
