Acts 7:18–21 Then another king, who knew nothing of Joseph, arose over Egypt. / He exploited our people and oppressed our fathers, forcing them to abandon their infants so they would die. / At that time Moses was born, and he was beautiful in the sight of God. For three months he was nurtured in his father’s house.
