Ex. 2:10•  (Ex. 2:10)
;
Acts 7:21‑24• 21and when he was cast out, Pharaoh's daughter took him up and nourished him for her own son.
 22And Moses was instructed in all [the] wisdom of [the] Egyptians; and he was mighty in his words and works.
 23But when he was about forty years old, it came into his heart to visit his brethren the sons of Israel;
 24and seeing one wronged, he defended [him], and avenged him that was oppressed, smiting the Egyptian. (Acts 7:21‑24)
• If providence brought him into her house, faith led him out. It was assuredly from no want of ability to estimate the advantage of his position. If the object, again, had been merely the relief of Israel by influence, or even their peaceful migration to Canaan by the skilful use of circumstances, no one could have a fairer opportunity or be better fitted to accomplish the event diplomatically or otherwise. But this would have redounded to the praise of Moses, not to the glory of God, as faith ever and rightly seeks. (“Hebrews 11:23-26” by W. Kelly)
• {v.24-26} The motives and affections which govern faith are given by God, and given by Him in order to form and govern the heart. Verses 24-26 develop this point. It is a very important principle; for we often hear providence alleged as a reason for not walking by faith. (“Hebrews 11” by J.N. Darby)
• Providence (thanks be to God!) governs circumstances; faith governs the heart and the conduct. (“Hebrews 11” by J.N. Darby)
• The parents overcame the fear of the world; their son overcame its favors. (“Faith Overcoming the Present World: Hebrews 11:23-40” by H. Smith)
• (Acts 7:20-22). There we are told that he was “exceeding fair,” that he “was learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds.” Here, then, was a man whose appearance was attractive, whose mind was well-stored with all the learning of the leading country of the world in that day, who could apply his wisdom with weighty words, and follow up his words with mighty deeds. (“Faith Overcoming the Present World: Hebrews 11:23-40” by H. Smith)
