Commentary on Acts 7:19
Theological / DevotionalSubtilly. Or, “craftily” (see on Ex. 1:10).
Evil entreated. An archaic expression for “treated badly.” Josephus (Antiquities ii. 9. 1 [203]) says that the Egyptians made the Israelites cut channels and dikes for the Nile.
They cast out. Rather, “in causing their young children to be cast out.” The phrase refers to what Pharaoh did to the hated Hebrews (see on Ex. 1:22).
