Atos 7:7 Meaning and Commentary

Acts 7:7

And the nation to whom they shall be in bondage
At the end of the four hundred years, and which was the Egyptian nation:

I will judge, said God;
that is, condemn and punish them, as he did, by inflicting the ten plagues upon them:

and after that they shall come forth;
out of the land of Egypt, and their hard bondage there; and which was brought about by the judgments executed upon the Egyptians:

and serve me in this place;
in the land of Canaan; though these words are not to be found in ( Genesis 15:13 ) what comes nearest them is in ( Exodus 3:12 ) . "Ye shall serve God upon this mountain"; meaning Mount Horeb, where Moses then was, and from whence the law was afterwards given.

Atos 7:7 In-Context

5 Deus não lhe deu nenhuma herança aqui, nem mesmo o espaço de um pé. Mas lhe prometeu que ele e, depois dele, seus descendentes, possuiriam a terra, embora, naquele tempo, Abraão não tivesse filhos.
6 Deus lhe falou desta forma: ‘Seus descendentes serão peregrinos numa terra estrangeira, escravizados e maltratados por quatrocentos anos.
7 Mas eu castigarei a nação a quem servirão como escravos, e depois sairão dali e me adorarão neste lugar’.
8 E deu a Abraão a aliança da circuncisão. Por isso, Abraão gerou Isaque e o circuncidou oito dias depois do seu nascimento. Mais tarde, Isaque gerou Jacó, e este os doze patriarcas.
9 “Os patriarcas, tendo inveja de José, venderam-no como escravo para o Egito. Mas Deus estava com ele
