 <div class="p">23&#8220;When Moses was forty years old, he decided to visit his own people, the Israelites. 24He saw one of them being mistreated by an Egyptian, so he went to his defense and avenged him by killing the Egyptian. 25Moses thought that his own people would realize that God was using him to rescue them, but they did not. 26The next day Moses came upon two Israelites who were fighting. He tried to reconcile them by saying, &#8216;Men, you are brothers; why do you want to hurt each other?&#8217;</div><div class="p"> 27&#8220;But the man who was mistreating the other pushed Moses aside and said, &#8216;Who made you ruler and judge over us? 28Are you thinking of killing me as you killed the Egyptian yesterday?&#8217;#7:28 Exodus 2:14 29When Moses heard this, he fled to Midian, where he settled as a foreigner and had two sons.</div><div class="p"> 30&#8220;After forty years had passed, an angel appeared to Moses in the flames of a burning bush in the desert near Mount Sinai. 31When he saw this, he was amazed at the sight. As he went over to get a closer look, he heard the Lord say: 32&#8216;I am the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.&#8217;#7:32 Exodus 3:6 Moses trembled with fear and did not dare to look.</div><div class="p"> 33&#8220;Then the Lord said to him, &#8216;Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground. 34I have indeed seen the oppression of my people in Egypt. I have heard their groaning and have come down to set them free. Now come, I will send you back to Egypt.&#8217;#7:34 Exodus 3:5,7,8,10</div><div class="p"> 35&#8220;This is the same Moses they had rejected with the words, &#8216;Who made you ruler and judge?&#8217; He was sent to be their ruler and deliverer by God himself, through the angel who appeared to him in the bush. 36He led them out of Egypt and performed wonders and signs in Egypt, at the Red Sea and for forty years in the wilderness.</div><div class="p"> 37&#8220;This is the Moses who told the Israelites, &#8216;God will raise up for you a prophet like me from your own people.&#8217;#7:37 Deut. 18:15 38He was in the assembly in the wilderness, with the angel who spoke to him on Mount Sinai, and with our ancestors; and he received living words to pass on to us.</div><div class="p"> 39&#8220;But our ancestors refused to obey him. Instead, they rejected him and in their hearts turned back to Egypt. 40They told Aaron, &#8216;Make us gods who will go before us. As for this fellow Moses who led us out of Egypt&#8212;we don&#8217;t know what has happened to him!&#8217;#7:40 Exodus 32:1 41That was the time they made an idol in the form of a calf. They brought sacrifices to it and reveled in what their own hands had made. 42But God turned away from them and gave them over to the worship of the sun, moon and stars. This agrees with what is written in the book of the prophets:</div><div class="q1">&#8220;&#8198;&#8216;Did you bring me sacrifices and offerings</div><div class="q2">forty years in the wilderness, people of Israel?</div><div class="q1"> 43You have taken up the tabernacle of Molek</div><div class="q2">and the star of your god Rephan,</div><div class="q2">the idols you made to worship.</div><div class="q1">Therefore I will send you into exile&#8217;#7:43 Amos 5:25-27 (see Septuagint) beyond Babylon.</div><div class="p"> 44&#8220;Our ancestors had the tabernacle of the covenant law with them in the wilderness. It had been made as God directed Moses, according to the pattern he had seen. 45After receiving the tabernacle, our ancestors under Joshua brought it with them when they took the land from the nations God drove out before them. It remained in the land until the time of David, 46who enjoyed God&#8217;s favor and asked that he might provide a dwelling place for the God of Jacob.#7:46 Some early manuscripts the house of Jacob 47But it was Solomon who built a house for him.</div><div class="p"> </div>
