Acts 7:16 in Context — Acts 7
14 Puis Joseph envoya chercher son père Jacob, et toute sa famille, composée de soixante-quinze personnes.
15 Jacob descendit en Égypte, où il mourut, ainsi que nos pères;
16 et ils furent transportés à Sichem, et déposés dans le sépulcre qu’Abraham avait acheté, à prix d’argent, des fils d’Hémor, père de Sichem.
17 Le temps approchait où devait s’accomplir la promesse que Dieu avait faite à Abraham, et le peuple s’accrut et se multiplia en Égypte,
18 jusqu’à ce que parut un autre roi, qui n’avait pas connu Joseph.
