What was Stephen's sermon in Acts 7 doing?
Stephen's sermon in Acts 7 was reviewing all the Old Testament. It recounted the account of Moses—his birth, his being designated by God for a special role, his being nourished in his father's house three months, and his education in all the wisdom of the Egyptians.
Les explains that Stephen's sermon in Acts 7 was reviewing all the Old Testament. Stephen recounts how the king who knew not Joseph dealt subtly with the kindred and evil entreated the fathers, casting out their young children. He then tells of Moses' birth, that he was exceeding fair—not merely pretty, but designated by God for a special role. Moses was nourished in his father's house three months, then cast out, taken up by Pharaoh's daughter, and learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians. Les also notes that in idolatrous nations, the only real education available was through the priests.
