OET interlinear ACTs 7:21

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐκτεθέντος δὲ αὐτοῦ

˓having_been˒_set_out (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐκτεθέντος Δέ αὐτοῦ ἀνείλατο αὐτόν ἡ θυγάτηρ Φαραώ καί ἀνεθρέψατο αὐτόν ἑαυτῇ εἰς υἱόν)

Moses was exposed because of Pharaoh’s command. If your language does not use the passive form in this way, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. If you must state who did the action, the context suggests that it was Moses’ parents. Alternate translation: [when his parents had to place him outside]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

ἀνείλατο αὐτὸν

took_away (Some words not found in SR-GNT: ἐκτεθέντος Δέ αὐτοῦ ἀνείλατο αὐτόν ἡ θυγάτηρ Φαραώ καί ἀνεθρέψατο αὐτόν ἑαυτῇ εἰς υἱόν)

This could mean: (1) that Pharaoh’s daughter adopted Moses. The verb can have this figurative legal meaning. Alternate translation: [adopted him] (2) that she lifted him up out of the basket he was in on the banks of the Nile. (This story is told in Exodus [2:1–10](../exo/02/01.md).) Alternate translation: [rescued him]
