TSNTyndale Study Notes:

7:1-53 Stephen responded to the accusations by testifying about his Lord (cp. Luke 21:12-17). Instead of defending himself against their prosecution, he became a witness in God’s prosecution of them, exposing their stubbornness and unfaithfulness to God. Stephen’s recital of Israel’s past reminded them of their repeated rejections of those whom God had sent.
• Stephen’s review of Israel’s history has three principal parts, dealing with the work of the patriarchs (Acts 7:2-16), the ministry of Moses (7:17-43), and the role of the Tabernacle and the Temple (7:44-50). Stephen followed up his historical survey with a clear attack on the hard-heartedness of his own people. With a prophetic challenge, he urged them to stop rebelling against the Holy Spirit and turn to God with repentance and faith.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐκτεθέντος δὲ αὐτοῦ

/having_been/_set_out and ˱of˲_him

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 him

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.) Alternate translation: [rescued him]
