Ex. 2:1–22 These facts, together with the account of God’s call on Moses (3:1–4:17), should lead the people of Israel to embrace Moses as God’s authorized “prince and judge” (2:14) and lawgiver.
Ex. 2:2 Fine child must at least mean that Moses was healthy.
Ex. 2:7–9 Considering that she was a slave in Egypt, Moses’ sister showed great courage in speaking to Pharaoh’s daughter (v. 7). Her bold action results in Moses’ mother’s being paid wages to nurse her own son (v. 9).
Ex. 2:10 In Hebrew, the name Moses sounds like the verb “to draw out” (see esv footnote). The name may also be related to the common Egyptian word for “son.” Since Pharaoh’s daughter clearly knows that Moses is a Hebrew child (vv. 6–9), it is possible that she chose the name for both its Hebrew and its Egyptian meanings.
Ex. 2:11 when Moses had grown up. Stephen says that Moses was 40 at this time (Acts 7:23). Even after being raised in Pharaoh’s house, Moses considers the Hebrew slaves to be his people.
Ex. 2:14 Who made you a prince and a judge over us? The words of the Hebrew man are a preview of the repeated grumbling of the Israelites as Moses leads them out of Egypt (see 5:21; 14:11; 12; 15:24; 16:2–3; 17:3).
Ex. 2:15 In sitting down by a well, Moses repeats the actions through which both Isaac (Gen. 24:11–28) and Jacob (Gen. 29:2–12) found their wives.
Ex. 2:18 Reuel is later referred to as “Jethro” (3:1; 4:18; 18:1). Clearly both names refer to the same person—the priest of Midian (2:16) who is Moses’ father-in-law.
Ex. 2:19 Moses apparently showed enough signs of his upbringing for Reuel’s daughters to assume he was Egyptian.
Ex. 2:23–25 The Lord does not view the offspring of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in terms of their years of slavery in Egypt but in terms of their covenant relationship with him.
Ex. 2:23 many days. Acts 7:30 understands this to be 40 years.
