7:21and when he had been abandoned,57 Pharaoh’s daughter adopted58 him and brought him up59 as her own son.
Footnotes
- 57 Or “exposed” (see v. 19).
- 58 Grk “Pharaoh’s daughter took him up for herself.” According to ἀναιρέω, “The pap. exx. involve exposed children taken up and reared as slaves … The rendering ‘adopt’ lacks philological precision and can be used only in a loose sense (as ), esp. when Gr-Rom. terminology relating to adoption procedures is taken into account.” In this instance both the immediate context and the OT account (Exod 2:3–10) do support the normal sense of the English word “adopt,” although it should not be understood to refer to a technical, legal event.
- 59 Or “and reared him” ( ἀνατρέφω b).
