7:39Our110 ancestors111 were unwilling to obey112 him, but pushed him aside113 and turned back to Egypt in their hearts,
Footnotes
- 110 Grk “whom our.” The continuation of the sentence as a relative clause is awkward in English, so a new sentence was started in the translation at this point.
- 111 Or “forefathers”; Grk “fathers.”
- 112 To obey. Again the theme of the speech is noted. The nation disobeyed the way of God and opted for Egypt over the promised land.
- 113 Pushed him aside. This is the second time Moses is “pushed aside” in Stephen’s account (see v. 27).
