Acts 7:19 in Context — Acts 7
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.
19 Ce roi, usant d’artifice contre notre race, maltraita nos pères, au point de leur faire exposer leurs enfants, pour qu’ils ne vécussent pas.
20 A cette époque, naquit Moïse, qui était beau aux yeux de Dieu. Il fut nourri trois mois dans la maison de son père;
21 et, quand il eut été exposé, la fille de Pharaon le recueillit, et l’éleva comme son fils.
