Acts 7:7 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Will I judge, or punish; and so the Egyptians were punished, not by human means, but by Divine power, and with God's own immediate hand, and that in the fulness of time, the very night in which God's promise was to take effect: and therefore it is a night to be much observed, Exodus 12:42, as showing, that the sabbath of his people, and the destruction of his enemies, slumber not, 2 Peter 2:3. Serve me in this place; in Mount Horeb. The reason why God delivers his people is, that they may serve him, as Luke 1:74,75; and so long as God hath any work for them to do in this world, he will preserve and deliver them.

Acts 7:7

7 And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage will I judge, said God: and after that shall they come forth, and serve me in this place.
