Acts 7:24 in Context — Acts 7

22 Moïse fut instruit dans toute la sagesse des Égyptiens, et il était puissant en paroles et en œuvres.

23 Il avait quarante ans, lorsqu’il lui vint dans le cœur de visiter ses frères, les fils d’Israël.

24 Il en vit un qu’on outrageait, et, prenant sa défense, il vengea celui qui était maltraité, et frappa l’Égyptien.

25 Il pensait que ses frères comprendraient que Dieu leur accordait la délivrance par sa main; mais ils ne comprirent pas.

26 Le jour suivant, il parut au milieu d’eux comme ils se battaient, et il les exhorta à la paix: Hommes, dit-il, vous êtes frères; pourquoi vous maltraitez-vous l’un l’autre?
